in reply to performance of map vs. foreach
Benchmark could have been more informative if perl version, machine load status and such had been given.
Using ikegami's code, perl 5.8.5 (FreeBSD/i386, 4.9-p11) gives on a quite idle machine (386MB RAM, 700MHz CPU, FreeBSD 4.10-p5) ...
Rate Map-like Map Foreach
Map-like 8.69/s -- -2% -29%
Map 8.90/s 2% -- -27%
Foreach 12.3/s 41% 38% --
... which obviously confirms that overall foreach is indeed faster than map.
