Don't speculate! Benchmark!
This is about the state of my Perl::Formance project on which I usually work during the Perl QA hackathons. Actual benchmark results included - for FREE!
I explain what I measure for the Perl5 interpreter, what workloads I use and why, how I evaluate the results, and I will present the actual performance trends with charts for Perl versions over the last years. I may also explain how you can integrate your measurements into the Perl::Formance infrastructure.
Obviously I had no clue the word "gauge" existed at all. Just like you! :-)
