Edit: Ignore all of this, it looks like BrowserUK figured it out just above...

I don't have a sufficiently recent threaded perl build around to test this theory, but I'd look at that assignment to $tmp in the inner loop in test2.

What happens if you just copy the int(rand(10)) into the inner loop without an assignment?

Of course, if this turns out to be the answer, WHY an assignment to a thread-local variable would cause that is a different question...

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.
