I've built perl-Text-CSV_XS-1.07 for perl-5.18.2 on 32-bit Cygwin. Functionally, everything seems OK. However, the performance of the test harness was quite poor. With perl-5.14.2, the perl-Text-CSV_XS test harness rattled through in 8 seconds; with perl-5.18.2 it was 68 seconds (same PC) - that's over 8x slower. Is this something you were expecting? Here are the relevant lines from the cygport log files. Firstly, the perl-Text-CSV_XS-1.07 test harness running under perl-5.14.2: All tests successful. Files=27, Tests=33858, 8 wallclock secs ( 2.23 usr 0.23 sys + 5.05 cusr 2.05 csys = 9.56 CPU) And now the same running under perl-5.18.2: All tests successful. Files=27, Tests=33858, 68 wallclock secs ( 0.34 usr 0.30 sys + 65.66 cusr 2.03 csys = 68.34 CPU) You can get the perl-Text-CSV_XS-1.07 source from CPAN (or your favourite Cygwin mirror) should you want to try this for yourself. The slowest test seemed to be 't/70_rt.t'. Hope this is helpful, Dave. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
