I agree.  But, with XS mouse, you're only cutting the startup time to 
0.07s from 0.09s, correct?  And really, 14.3 .t/s also sucks vs the 
50 .t/s with v0.98, no?

Is there a way to remove some of the work Mouse is doing at startup?  
What is it doing?

I did once suggest a pre-loading / forking harness (along the lines of 
Test::Aggregate), though it would probably be much better to make the 
test code start faster rather than need to work around it.
