The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Convert::Bencode::Iterative DSLIP: adpfp description: Convert to/from bencoding (iterative way) userid: GIULIENK (Giulio Motta) chapterid: 17 (Archiving_and_Compression) communities:
similar: Convert::Bencode rationale: Convert::Bencode::Iterative gives an iterative solution to bencode and bdecode algorithms, usually expressed in a recursive way. As this functions could be used in a webserver tracker, an optimization of the algorithms lead to less load on the server. I don't think Convert::Bencode::Iterative should substitute Convert::Bencode even just cause Convert::Bencode algorithm is slower but nicer. For instance, Convert::Bencode::Iterative::bdecode function benchmarks to around 120 times faster than Convert::Bencode::bdecode, still I won't call the code pretty or easily understandable. Also I'd like to explore possible XS solutions in the future.
