Subject: please make Devel::Size optional, DISPLAY_PERL_SIZE break if not installed
Devel::Size is broken in 5.20.0. See https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=95493 Perhaps it would be good to make Devel::Size an optional dependency, skip size tests if not installed, and cause DISPLAY_PERL_SIZE to throw an error if Devel::Size is not installed. Otherwise, this module cannot be installed in 5.20.0. Thanks. -Mark

Devel::Size is again broken in perl 5.27.x. So it would still be good to make this dependency optional.
