IIRC, I read somewhere that at "compilation" time qq strings 
that don't need interpolation are compiled to an 
equivalent token type to q (') strings.  

If that's the case, then you won't have any runtime penalty, and the 
startup penalty is not going to be noticeable, since parsing an empty 
string is hardly challenging :)
