Hi All, I've got two machines here which are pretty crappy but there seems to be something seriously wrong somewhere. One machine, a Pentium 200 MMX with 80MB ram runs a very simple script taking 5 seconds.
t@data:~$ cat test.pl use diagnostics; use strict; print "hi\n"; t@data:~$ time perl test.pl hi real 0m5.105s user 0m4.990s sys 0m0.100s The same script without the use diagnostics and use strict provides a much faster execution. t@data:~$ time perl test.pl hi real 0m0.113s user 0m0.060s sys 0m0.050s t@data:~$ cat test.pl print "hi\n"; I'm actually trying to setup a CGI script and it appears very slow. I tracked the majority of the speed problems to those two statements. Is this normal or do I need to run these scripts on a faster computer? I would think that should not be necessisary. Help!? :-) Thanks, Trevor.
