in thread What's the perl5's future?

Thank you dave_the_m. For the example script, the performance difference is seen with Perl 5.20+ versus the OS installed Perl 5.18.2 on Mac OS X 10.11.6 and Perl 5.16.3 on CentOS 7.2. I thought the performance increase was due to cperl 5.22c. I tried Perl 5.20 and Perl 5.22. Both run as fast as cperl.

Hurray for Perl 5.20 and later releases.
