I've released version 0.07 of Text::VimColor. This new version is much faster than before (by a whole 2 seconds per file you syntax colour, if you have Vim 6.2). It also fixes an important bug.
I've just done a quick benchmark, using the only application which actually uses this module so far (this blog). With version 0.06 it took about 102 seconds to build the whole blog, most of which time was spent doing the syntax colouring. That's probably still the bottle neck, but with the new version the whole thing only takes 16 seconds, so I don't really mind.
Now hopefully I'll be able to leave this thing for more than a week without having to do another release…
