In this particular case, I'm not sure it would. In general, it can, in situations where the (chronologically) first transform consumes a lot of time for some reason, if you have duplicated data in the list that you are sorting. Not needing to perform the same time-intensive computation repeatedly saves time. But in this case, it doesn't look like there are going to be a lot of duplicate data (though only someone with access to the original poster's real data could say that for sure), and furthermore that regular expression in the first transform doesn't look like it would be much of a bottleneck, so I'm not sure much if anything would be gained.

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.
