NAME

Bencher::Scenario::Perl::5200Perf_return - Benchmark return() being optimized away

VERSION

This document describes version 0.051 of Bencher::Scenario::Perl::5200Perf_return (from Perl distribution Bencher-Scenarios-Perl), released on 2021-07-03.

SYNOPSIS

To run benchmark with default option:

% bencher -m Perl::5200Perf_return

For more options (dump scenario, list/include/exclude/add participants, list/include/exclude/add datasets, etc), see bencher or run bencher --help.

DESCRIPTION

From perl5200delta: In certain situations, when return is the last statement in a subroutine's main scope, it will be optimized out. This means code like:

sub baz { return $cat; }

will now behave like:

sub baz { $cat; }

which is notably faster.

[perl #120765].

BENCHMARK PARTICIPANTS

  • return (perl_code)

    Code template:
