+As noted in L<Clone::More>, this module started as a patch for L<Clone> with repsect to a
+large memory leak a team I was working closely with at the time fell across once implemented
+the cloning into a Perl application. The unfortunate part is that I wasn't able to patch the
+L<Clone> module without a complete re-factor (I still have no idea where the leak is in Clone),
+and have not been able to get ahold of Ray Finch, the current author and supporter of L<Clone>.
+Every thing considered, I loaded up this and it's counter part L<Clone::More> - both a little
+different from one another, and both a little different from L<Clone> still.
