Andy, look at the subject line of this thread.

I think you owe it to the list to post both the Perl code and the URL 
of the Rev stack, side by side, so we can look at the implementation. 
Probably you are comparing two different.

In my opinion, Perl is NOT faster than Rev. Post your Perl routine! And 
the URL of your Rev stack again. If you really want to get to the 
bottom of this :-)
