NAME

Acme::CPANModules::XSVersions - XS versions of Perl modules

VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of Acme::CPANModules::XSVersions (from Perl distribution Acme-CPANModules-XSVersions), released on 2019-01-15.

DESCRIPTION

XS versions of Perl modules.

This list catalogs (pure-) Perl modules that have their XS counterparts ("fast versions"), usually in separate distributions so the installation of the XS version is optional. The two versions of the modules provide the same interface. When the two modules are different in interface, they are not listed here.

Usually authors use ::XS or _XS suffix for the XS version (for example, Type::Tiny is the PP/pure-perl version and Type::Tiny::XS is the XS version). Or sometimes the other way around is done, a module is an XS module and another with suffix ::PP or _PP is the PP version. And often a module like JSON is one that can automatically use the XS version (JSON::XS) when it's available or fallback to the PP version (JSON::PP).

Additions much welcome.
