Is there anything wrong with this benchmark?
Class::Method::Modifiers versus $self->SUPER
.
The exec summary is:
$ dumbbench perl test1.pl
cmd: Ran 21 iterations (1 outliers).
cmd: Rounded run time per iteration: 2.0408e-02 +/- 3.6e-05 (0.2%)
$ dumbbench perl test2.pl
cmd: Ran 22 iterations (2 outliers).
cmd: Rounded run time per iteration: 1.5050e-02 +/- 6.9e-05 (0.5%)
So Class::Method::Modifiers seems 30% faster. I'm guessing that this is the result of not having the subroutine overhead call on every invocation. Am I right? How does this work?
