Hello ye monks!
UPDATE: the time seems to be proportional to the number of rows. The 2-3 second timing is for a table with 450 rows and 12 columns.
On a table with 120 rows, it's less than a second. Speculating: it would seem that relative to node xpath has some bug and may be scanning the whole table each time.
Anybody out there have any clue why this takes 2 to 3 seconds:
my @cells = $mech->xpath('.//td', node => $rows[$row_index]);
Posted the issue here.
I posted the issue here: https://github.com/libwww-perl/WWW-Mechanize/issues/362
But answers and wisdom usually come faster in the Monastery ;-)
If anyone knows a cheaper way to get the TDs of a TD using WWW::Mechanize::Chrome or have any other suggestion pls. do tell !
TIA!

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.
