Bug#543477: The whole system is slow

Hi!

If you run that test on an desktop machine, you will see that that the
'Getopt::Long' version is almost 5 times longer that the 'Getopt::Std'.

On my x86 system :
pim at pim-linux:/tmp/testperl$ time perl -e 'use Getopt::Long;'

real    0m0.038s
user    0m0.028s
sys     0m0.008s
pim at pim-linux:/tmp/testperl$ time perl -e 'use Getopt::Std;'

real    0m0.007s
user    0m0.004s
sys     0m0.004s

So this numbers seems normal.



This problem is not related with perl, it is related to something slow in your
architecture (system calls, context-switch, ...) so this wish should go to the
kernel or libc page...


Best regards


Marc
