I did some profiling and easy optimizations which sped things up quite a bit,
but it didn't translate into real world improvements. Turns out the real
problem is startup time.

Test::Builder1.5 is slow. How slow? About 3x slower than 0.98. Enough to
significantly impact test performance. For example, Spiffy takes 1 second
with 0.98 vs 3.3s with 1.5.
I deliberately didn't do any profiling or optimization while the design was
coming together. This avoided spending tim

Hi,
here's a quick summary of what was said on irc (the meeting actually
started at 14:00 CET instead of 13:00, because I was very late).
The date and venue have been decided: Friday March 30 to Sunday April 1st,
at the Carrefour Numérique of La Cité des Sciences, in Paris.
Early next week, we w
