I wouldn't have predicted such a dramatic performance disparity across Perl versions.

It took me by surprise also.

I've done, and posted, this hashes versus vec benchmark many times over the years, yours was the first challenge to what I took to be simple fact.

Its yet another plank in my rapidly growing conclusion that 5.10.1 was 'peak Perl'.

Have updated my benchmarking post with "(Perl v5.14.2 64-bit)" - which I now think should always be included in benchmarks.

I wholeheartedly concur and will endeavour to do the same in future.

Greatly appreciate your informative reply!

We both learned something. That's win-win. You can't ask for more :)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
