don't let others decide what you should do

Yeah right ... Like I need you to boss me around.

The accumulation of "should"s in my question was supposed to lead to an intensity in my questionings resulting in an 50s holywoodesque cliffhanger that would leave all readers either eager for the answer or rushing to give their point of view. Sorry you didn't get it. Maybe you should, you know, chill out ?

I find asking questions here higly educational even if I don't directly use the answers in my code. Most of the time i do, and not blindly but because the quality of the arguments used and the knowledge level of some of the people here is amazing.

OTOH thanks for the "eval" advice but in my camel book performance chapter 24 point 6 it says avoid eval on a string and in a loop. Here we're doing both. So now i really wonder who i should believe, some anonymous guy on a forum or a book written by Larry Wall . Gee, that's a tough one ...

Also your understanding of IO is wrong : it's much more likely that the module data will already be in memory since we have a lot of files to process for each module function.
