A perl module that makes perl run, well, faster, using a very primitive just in time compiler.
As the name implies, using this module makes your perl program run faster. Actually, much slower initially, as it compiles every function to C and later to a shared object, but then you can expect a performance increase by 10-50%, depending on what your program does.
