Your benchmark is charging the time for both Win32::Internet and LWP::UserAgent to the latter:

printf "\nLWP::UA took %7.3f seconds\n", my $time3 = time() - $start2;

should be:

printf "\nLWP::UA took %7.3f seconds\n", my $time3 = time() - $start3;

Indeed. Well spotted, thankyou++. I've updated the node. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
