Indeed. And I even have the whole infrastructure available[1], currently
just polishing on minor-minor detail struggles before it continuously
runs against Perl's git repo:
http://speed.perlformance.net/
http://perlformance.net/
(both currently only contain just example runs).
It doesn't work with 5.6, but from 5.8.x+.
So whoever wants to have code benchmarked only needs to put the micro
snippets into a plugin like
http://search.cpan.org/~schwigon/Benchmark-Perl-Formance/lib/Benchmark/Perl/Formance/Plugin/Skeleton.pm
and I will take care of all the other stuff.
I had it nearly finished on the last QA hackathon and took the last
weeks to re-setup after my server crashed before YAPC::EU. I'm out for a
long weekend, but it will continuously run from next week, really. :-)
Kind regards,
Steffen

else than running benchmarks without disturbance by web, email &
friends.
