OK, that makes sense. I thought someone went through the trouble to "optimize" that and it didn't seem worthwhile. It should be possible to enhance Devel::Tokenizer::C to be brighter: as soon as you get past a certain length of the token (TBD) and it is otherwise unique, use strEQ, else use the individual character comparison.

But as you said, it probably isn't worth the trouble (premature optimization in the other direction)...
