Hmm, good suggestion, but these are the results I get -
Benchmark: timing 10000000 iterations of comp, exist, regex, regexo...
comp: 53 wallclock secs (53.96 usr + 0.00 sys = 53.96 CPU)
exist: 49 wallclock secs (49.23 usr + 0.00 sys = 49.23 CPU)
regex: 78 wallclock secs (77.40 usr + 0.00 sys = 77.40 CPU)
regexo: 78 wallclock secs (77.12 usr + 0.00 sys = 77.12 CPU)
As you can see regexo isn't showing much difference.
Could this be because I'm using /^[A..Z]$/o instead
of your suggested /^[A-Z]$/o, or are they functionally
equivalent?

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.
