From rnorwood@redhat.com

This is a bug report for perl from rnorwood@​redhat.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.8.


Apparently this change​:

http​://rt.perl.org/rt3//Public/Bug/Display.html?id=34925

Causes a significant performance hit for user's of Fedora's perl. This issue is in Red Hat's bugzilla here​:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196836

The test script mentioned in comment #6​:

use Benchmark;
timethese(shift || 100000, {
'overload' => sub { push our @​array, TestOverload->new },
'not overload' => sub { push our @​array, TestNoverload->new },
});

package TestNoverload;
sub new { bless { hoge => 'hoge' }, shift }

package TestOverload;
use overload (
q{""} => sub {},
);
sub new { bless { hoge => 'hoge' }, shift }

Produces the following results on this system​:

<<EOQ
Benchmark​: timing 100000 iterations of not overload, overload...
not overload​: 1 wallclock secs ( 0.47 usr + 0.16 sys = 0.63 CPU) @​ 158730.16/s (n=100000)

  overload​: 962 wallclock secs (414.86 usr + 100.95 sys = 515.81 CPU) @​ 193.87/s (n=100000)
EOQ

Let me know if I can provide any assistance reproducing this problem.

I thought that it was fixed with change 28775.
Has that been integrated to Fedora's perl?

Change 28775 by nicholas@​nicholas-saigo on 2006/09/02 16​:01​:36

  Integrate​:
  [ 28771]
  Change the generation of {} and [] from 3 ops to 1, and avoid 1 mortal
  on the tempstack, by augmenting pp_anonlist and pp_anonhash to accept
  OPf_SPECIAL to mean "return a reference to the aggregate" on the stack
  rather than the aggregate itself.

Yep, it looks like we took the 27512 patch and neglected the 28775
patch. I'll build another perl with that patch and let you know what I
see.

Thanks!

Hi,

A patch derived from change #28775 fixes the problem on my test system.
I'll apply it to Fedora's perl. Thanks for your help.
