in thread Garbage collection problem??

If you look at my tests, they are not using Windows at all nor is it using ActivePerl. Some people have said that it is not an issue on their system but have not posted what type of system they are running (except for OS X).

Update: You are correct, I misread your post, sorry about that...

    No, you misunderstand the problem statement. Your results don't show the problem:

    sgkirkup@7­2sp691lin:­~$ ./performa­nce-test.p­l Section A took 0.8600 CPU seconds Section B took 2.1800 CPU seconds Section A took 0.8800 CPU seconds Section B took 2.2200 CPU seconds

    The problem isn't that "Section B" takes longer than "Section A", but that the second run of "Section B" takes longer than the first run of "Section B" (and not just slightly longer).
