Thought from THE FUTURE: MetaCPAN (the best and now, only, way to look up and/or search for things on CPAN) uses ElasticSearch (written in Java) for text-searching - in other words, use the best tool for the job.
Regarding PDL, I recently cribbed some code in order to add PDL support STL ("Stereolithograpy", a lingua franca format for 3D printing in 2022). When I switched from a Perl loop reading a chunk of bytes then using unpack, to making an ndarray where it sliced the relevant parts of each chunk out and treated those as single-precision data, the data-processing more than doubled in speed. In other words, PDL's data-processing is (not surprisingly) faster than an interpreted language's processing, even using the optimised unpack functionality.

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).
