I had a play with using it in (of all places) the core, to sort a subset of the tests to run in slowness order, in t/harness You can see the (annotated) code here: http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse?filename=t%2Fharness&show_blame=Show+Annotated+File If you want to break it, it doesn't matter. I'll take it out again. Nicholas Clark
