    All the issues regarding installations have been fixed successfully as there was issue with the pod_coverage

    As it was my first attempt to submit module, some issues where there

    Sorry, i couldn't find better name than this as this also fits to the bill. though it not fit perfectly to the naming convention but another example is Benchmark.pm which Speedometer depends.

    Thanks all for your help

      Benchmark is part of the perl core, it's name gives you a good idea what it's going to do. Speedometer on the other hand, doesn't suggest that it will basically just call Benchmark. Perhaps I am missing the point of Speedometer, but your documentation (as of v1.06, currently live on cpan) doesn't look complete. What advantage does it have over using the exiting core functionality?

      "Sorry, i couldn't find better name than this as this also fits to the bill."

      You were provided with various places to ask if you were unsure.

        Marto, i have deleted version 1.06 , it will take a while to delete from CPAN.

        The advantage of Speedometer is that when you got to Perl files you can directly use that, where Benchmark doesn't allow you to use Perl files directly you have to copy and paste code there

        when you have large code to compare , you will prefer that code to put in Perl file and you just have to go like this

        use Speedometer;

        speedometer("file1","file2"); # that's it.

        With the name i have clearly mentioned that, it is interface to the Benchmark module, so people should not get confused about it

        in Readme also i have described it, what it does and how to use it

        .

        Thanks
