Certainly the additional call levels are playing a part, but in more real-world usage of autobox (which wasn't just simple uses of CORE:: subs) I would suspect it would be much less relevant.

Thanks stvn. I whole-heartedly agree with you on this point. I would like to at least optimize the core operations if possible (read easy). I feel it's something that others might also be interested in as far as lowering the entry point/barrier to using autobox speed-wise so we can get on with the more interesting uses.

I'm open to solutions that sub-class and/or hack the Perl portion of autobox and maybe even the XS part if chocolateboy is listening ;)

Of course, if it can be incontrovertibly shown that there is no optimizations to be had, then thanks and nevermind :)
