This is true. On the other hand, it replaces a 75-line function with
1473 lines of perl. I wonder which has more overhead?
You are right about one thing: If you are using SA anyway, then you
might as well try to reuse its DNS code. But holding up SA code as an
example of "performance-optimized perl" is pretty ridiculous. :-) SA
is a huge, bloated, infected-with-not-invented-here-syndrome pig.
