Hello.
I am a total perl newbie who is running perl v5.6 on a RedHat Linux v7.1
system.
I am using a perl program as a Web proxy redirector, a program that I would
very much like to improve the performance of. If I improve the performance
of perl itself (by building it with different compiler switches) will this
translate into improved runtime performance in the perl program itself?
My (dim) understanding is that perl works as a sort of runtime compiler.
This leave me uncertain if a faster perl build/installation will actually
run the programs faster or simply "compile" them faster at startup, leaving
the runtime performance unchanged.
Please cc me as I am not a subscriber to this list. Thank you.
