Personally, I'd just use a simple benchmark script that loads the
module and benchmarks the desired function(s), then run it twice, with
$PERL5LIB pointed for it to find the appropriate version each time
(most easily - pointed at a git checkout which I switch between
release branches in between runs of the benchmark script,
alternatively just pointed at two different dirs containing different
versions).
