I disagree, Took me a few hours to learn the basics and write my first useful bit of code. I could not guess how long it took to learn more throughly because from then on I learnt more as I needed it. Although in the early days some of the jobs were hard to write, and I did occasionally suffer from the "spend five hours writing code that will save you two hours work" syndrome, that was simply because I was still learning. Once it is learnt (and learning it is not hard) writing good Perl is relatively easy.
