in thread Converting a string to a real numeric value - what's faster?

"Really? If that's true, then there's a bug in Perl."

No need to worry: it was a known bug in an XS module I use here, and the developer of the module already fixed it - but it steered my attention towards this string/number thing.

"You tell us."

Call me a lazy bum, but being the noob that I am at proper benchmarking, I thought a quick post and a question to people who know the Perl internals would be faster.
