Autrijus Tang is releasing the latest version of his PAR module (0.60) later today. The new version caches unPARed archives to improve speed.

PAR is a module that packages Perl modules and XS extensions into a .par file that can then be loaded from a Perl script. It allows for easy redistribution of modules.

    Yeah, version 0.22 was promising, but sometime between there and 0.51, it broke on OS X. I've reported it, but nothing back yet. Maybe 0.60 will fix that.
