hash 11956/s -- -73%
ref 43773/s 266% --
You are misreading the results. That says using ref is faster by 266%, not slower.
Update: ... or perhaps you have just forgotten how you named your two codes. "hash" and "ref"?! They are both using hashrefs!
The one with the pre-created hashref is the faster one though. Just as common wisdom would have it.
