Actually... I wouldn't normally think of Benchmark unless I'm considering altering my perl style. It isn't going to help you find the slow parts in your program, isn't even going to tell you whether the speed difference is even meaningful. I guess the only time I ever actually reach for it is when I'm doing very odd things and want to know which odd thing performs less worse. Outside of that... *shrug*.
