in thread Up for Critique

Thanks for the comments admiralh. I must have missed the part about $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR in Programming Perl. It is, after all, described on one of the most evil of pages (3rd ed.). ;)

Question: Is 'monitor' similar to the *nix shell command 'time' ? I just discovered that one.

    Yes monitor is similar to time. If you want to get really blood and guts try strace which traces system commands and calls. Often when there is a bottle neck it can aid detection (quickly).
