in thread threads::shared seems to kill performance

Wow, this is quite something. I'm trying to absorb all that and I have probably a very stupid question at the beginning - what is threads::Q? I can't find that on CPAN or anywhere else.

    what is threads::Q? I can't find that on CPAN or anywhere else.

    Its a module of my own writing that I've never packaged.

    It is essentially my own version of Thread::Queue minus a lot of that modules junk, plus a little extra. Namely, you specify a size for the queue and it self limits to that size, blocking senders when it gets to full and receivers when empty.
