I am afraid to actually commit it until I have tested the heck out of it. The date/time handling then disappears into the negligible category when I profile the code so going one step further and using C wouldn't be worthwhile in this case. > btw, at one point, I seem to recall that another > slow section was (somewhere) buried in the xml > writer.

Rrewriting XMLTV.pm in C would be a lot of error prone hard to maintain work. If XML/Writer.pm had a C implementation it would help some and maybe be more practical then rewriting XMLTV.pm. But in either case I doubt anyone will do it anytime soon if ever. And as you mentioned MythTV spends more time chewing on the data than the grabber takes anyway.
