NAME
   PPI::XS - (Minor) XS acceleration for PPI

DESCRIPTION
   PPI::XS provides XS-based acceleration of the core PPI packages. It
   selectively replaces a (small but growing) number of methods throughout
   PPI with identical but much faster C versions.

   Once installed, it will be auto-detected and loaded in by PPI completely
   transparently.

   Because the C implementations are linked to the perl versions of the
   same function, it is preferable to upgrade PPI::XS any time you do a
   major upgrade of PPI itself.

   If the two fall out of sync, the integration between the two is designed
   to degrade gracefully. PPI::XS is capable of determining which functions
   are no longer equal, and will simple leave the perl version alone,
   deleting the C version to free up the memory.

   If the versions of the two get so far apart that they become completely
   incompatible, PPI::XS will simply silently not load at all.

   Beyond that, there isn't that much more you really need to know. :)
