I am glad you wrote this.
I wanted to ask back if there is any real performance issue in the code
and if Deane has used any profiler on it to see which part of the code
takes the longest to execute.

yes. I think my philosophy is that within reasonable boundaries first
write maintainable, well tested code that does what it needs to do
and only then check if there is any performance issue.
If there is, then run http://search.cpan.org/dist/Devel-NYTProf/
and see where is the problem.
