in reply to Re^4: sorting two arrays together
in thread sorting two arrays together

Just tried again with the Devel::Size version 0.71. With this I get (which makes more sense): 

15204688   # pairs
7340704    # 2 arrays

The randomness in the results is also gone.

I was using BrowserUk's patched version 0.72, which I thought fixed some issues he had discovered with the 'official' version — apparently there are other issues...

        If you have a 32-bit version of perl available, the results of the same 0.71/0.72 comparison would be interesting.
