in thread simply appending to a scalar...

How many times did you run the 256 one? dot_eq equals dot for me every time.

ActivePerl 5.8.0 on WinXP.

    Before reading your post, 3 times; now 6. Always same results:

    substr: >6.80 dot_eq: 10.2 .. 10.7 dot: 13.3 .. 13.6

    This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi on Debian/Linux.
