    It's not about blaming perl but rather some "horses for courses" thing...
      Perl execution is roughly 10 times slower than C.

      But IO access won't be faster.

      If one of the modules has a slow init phase it'll be reasonable to patch it (eg by memoizing Astronomical tables?)

      Reprogramming it in C is only reasonable if such modules are available in C.

      Otherwise porting will take longer than patching.

      Cheers Rolf
