Description : Generate fast XS accessors without runtime compilation
Class::XSAccessor implements fast read, write and read/write accessors
in XS. Additionally, it can provide predicates such as has_foo() for
testing whether the attribute foo is defined in the object. It only
works with objects that are implemented as ordinary hashes.
.
The XS accessor methods were between 1.6 and 2.5 times faster than
typical pure-perl accessors in some simple benchmarking. If you
usually write clear code, a factor of two speed-up is a good estimate.

The package is a dependency of Padre 0.25 and will be maintained under
Debian Perl Group's felt hat.
