ActivePerl 5.8.8.817 and above are built as Universal binaries for Mac OS X, meaning that it will run efficiently on both Intel and PowerPC architecture Macs. Versions before 5.8.8.817 were built for PowerPC only. These versions will usually run on an Intel Mac, but will use the PowerPC compatibility layer in OS X, and will run fairly slowly. Therefore, we recommend using 5.8.8.817 or above if your Mac has an Intel CPU.
