Prior releases of the 6.x line relied on Lexical::Types, which was a major performance pessimisation over the 5.x releases.

6.0.4 relies on a simple source filter instead, which restores performance levels back to expected levels.

More benchmarks added to the test suite validate the dependency changes.

113-bit integer arithmetic

Changes for 0.04

  • Allow negative values to be passed to bitwise operators (&, |, ^, ~, >>, <<). These negative values will be converted to their 113-bit 2s-complement value prior to being acted upon by the bitwise operator - thus mimicking perl's treatment of negative 32-bit/64-bit IVs.
  • Add divmod() function.
  • Add new test file t/bitwise_feature.t

HTTP/2 Dynamic Benchmarks (PHP vs. ModPerl2), 2024 edition.

I ram these about four years ago, and the time differentials were about the same then as now. Monolithic POSIX-threaded server architectures like mp2 + mpm_event will always dominate in low-latency/scalability HTTP/2 benchmarks because they leverage zero-copy in the runtime.

Anyways, sexy terminal graphs with smag to enjoy!

Some basic stat computations with Perl , Python and RLessons learned:
A) Performance freaks to stop using #rstat 's runif for random generation. The Hoshiro random number generator https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.01407 is 10x faster.
Implementations in #perl 's #PDL, #rstats (dqrng) and #python #numpy are within 20% of each other

B) But does it make a difference in applications? To get to the bottom of this, I coded a truncated random variate generator in #rstats and #perl using #pdl (as well as standard u/perl) using the #GSL packages https://metacpan.org/pod/PDL::GSL::CDF & https://metacpan.org/pod/Math::GSL for accessing the CDF & quantile functions. In this context, it's the calculation of the #CDF that is the computationally intensive part, not the drawing of the random number itself.
Well even in these case, the choice of the generator did matter. Note that the fully vectorized #PDL #perl versions were faster than #rstats

C) I should probably blog about these experiments at some point. Note that #pdl (but not base #perl) are rather competitive choices for large array processing with numerical operations. I mostly stay away of #python , but would not surprise me that for compute intensive stuff (where the heavy duty work is done in C/C++), it does not matter (much) which high level language one uses to build data applications

Hi, im working on this perl script wherein i should get all files with filename < 900000

Ex. sample_file_802856.txt sample_file_27364692.txt sample_file_385620.txt

the script should get:

sample_file_802856.txt sample_file_385620.txt

I already have the code but it’s failing on this part coz im having a hard time getting the regex for < 900000 😆

Hi,

I am moving to RedHat 9 from RedHat 7. I am running Apache with mod_perl.

I have installed the mod_perl package on the RedHat 9 box. I am getting this error on bit of code that I wrote:

Can't locate XSLoader.pm: /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.32/XSLoader.pm: Permission denied at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Apache2/XSLoader.pm line 22.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Apache2/XSLoader.pm line 22.\nCompilation failed in require at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Apache2/Access.pm line 24.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Apache2/Access.pm line 24. 

When I do a search for XSLoader.pm, I find:
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/APR/XSLoader.pm /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Apache2/XSLoader.pm /usr/share/perl5/XSLoader.pm 

I am guessing I have some path issue. Any ideas what I may need to do?

thank you

I work in infosec, specifically in penetration testing. I learned Perl to some extent years ago when Metasploit was still written in Perl (They switched to Ruby). It seems these days that most people in my industry like Python, and some of the most important modules we use in my field are in Python. Does Perl offer any modules as comprehensive as Impacket for hacking protocols such as SMB, WMI, Kerberos, etc?

A new release of PDL is out! It's been about a year since I last posted on here about a PDL release (last was PDL 2.083).

A selection of changes since PDL 2.083:

  • Diab Jerius reported that a previous change to [xyz]vals to return at least a double had a regression for code that requests an explicit type smaller than that. Fixed in 2.085.
    Diab Jerius also reported several other edge cases: 1, 2, 3 including a fix for vsearch.

    Also, Diab Jerius modularised the primitive ops tests which allows for faster parallel testing.

  • Harald Jörg reported that large arrays would cause PDL::FFT to crash. Fixed by switching from the stack VLAs to heap allocation. Fixed in 2.085.
    While it is recommended to use PDL::FFTW3 instead, PDL::FFT is bundled with PDL for the cases where PDL::FFTW3 can not be easily installed.
  • Bas Couwenberg reported and fixed a previously deprecated API in HDF4 which has now been removed and replaced. Fixed in 2.085.
    As part of the Debian release process, Bas Couwenberg reported a failure on i386. Fixed in 2.087.
  • Shawn Laffan provided an improvement to PDL::GIS::Proj so that it would load correctly on Windows via Alien::proj.
  • Po-Chuan Hsieh provided a build fix for FreeBSD on amd64. I also happened to talk to James E Keenan around the same time about PDL builds on FreeBSD so this was followed up by adding CI testing for FreeBSD. Fixed in 2.085.
  • Ryan Egesdahl provided a fix for macOS Ventura which changed the location of GLUT headers. Fixed in 2.085.
  • Eli Schwartz reported an upstream Gentoo bug when building with LTO that uncovered 64-bit issues in Minuit and Slatec Fortran code. Fixed in 2.086.
  • @vadim-160102 reported several issues with stringification: 1, 2; one of which uncovered a bug in conversion of ulonglong to Perl scalar.
  • Karl Glazebrook, @vadim-160102, and users from PerlMonks provided valuable reports in tracking down issues with dataflow https://github.com/PDLPorters/pdl/issues/461. Fix available in 2.086.
  • Jörg Sommrey contributed improved typemap handling which allows for using the typemap definitions that are available in Perl's default typemap. Available in 2.086.
  • Ed has added many improvements to the PP code generator and internal API as well as several new functions. Please see the Changes file for details!
    Of note are several speed improvements that are inspired by Eric Wheeler's note about the speed of sequence().

A full list of closed issues and PRs is here. Thanks to all the contributors!

There are also some things to report from the wider World of PDL:

  • Jörg Sommrey has released a PDL interface to GLPK (GNU Linear Programming Kit) for mathematical optimization: https://metacpan.org/pod/PDL::Opt::GLPK.
  • The PGPLOT distribution now incorporates PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT module that was in the PDL distribution. The dependencies remain the same.
  • PDL::Graphics::Simple had some small updates to the drivers. This is preparation for splitting the backend engines to their respective backend distributions (not yet released) and defining an API version that the engines conform to.
