Mc,
Your benchmark shows zsh being 10X quicker than Perl, that would be the order of difference that I
noticed.

As my conclusion says (sorryn it's in french), it will only be true with few content to process : perl compute things very faster than shell. In this benchmark, perl is slower because you have to launch a huge binary (perl interpreter) to execute a very small task.
