Re: Performance question with a string concat

Hello,
I want to let grow a string variable within a loop.
A non-interpolated string '' is said to be faster than the usual "" string.
Disadvantage of the non-interpolated string is that \n is not recognized.

Now, what would be faster?

If you are concerned about the speed of single-quoted vs. double-quoted strings, then you should not be programming in Perl. Any difference will be miniscule.

If your app is slow and you want to speed it up, then use the Benchmark module and try to figure out which section of your code takes the most time, and optimize that.
