AutoLoader::AUTOLOAD optimization
I notice that although *.al are right alongside autosplit.ix the trick AutoLoader::import uses to speed looking for the latter is not used to find the *.al files - anyone know why? On NFS mounted file systems at least, all the failed stats/opens are expensive. (Sadly I am testing this at home where everything is local...) p5p-msgid: <199611231954.TAA09921@ni-s.u-net.com>
