Slow perl performance on 8x86 system vs. 2.6
2007-12-24 21:37:00
I have a perl script, which is doing 3 things.
1. get all the listing of a directory, using the Perl function: glob (*);
2. for each name we got in the step 1, check for existence of a file, using
the Perl function, -f $fileName
3. for each name we got in the step 1, read a properties file. (file size is
< 1.5k)
I am running this script on a directory with 6500 entries.
It takes 25 seconds to complete this script on E250 dual 300/1GB RAM Solaris
2.6 and 5 minutes on Intel P4 2Ghz/1GB RAM Solaris 8x86.
Hard Drive speed is the same on both systems.
Any ideas why it's so slow on x86 system?
Thanks in advance,
Vlad
