=item Object oriented interface does represent or add anything

The L<NewRelic::Agent> instance that you create doesn't represent anything in the NewRelic Agent SDK.  In fact if you don't understand
how things work under the hood, you might be confused into believing that you can initialize multiple agent instances in the same process.

=item Object oriented interface is slower

Because the unused C<$agent> instance needs to be shifted off the stack before calling the underlying C code there is a lot more overhead in the
object oriented interface.

=item Functions aren't renamed

The object oriented version renames a number of its methods, so translating C/C++ example code is nearly impossible.
The procedural version uses the same function name and constants, so translating example code from other languages
is easy.

=item API is complete

This interface is more complete than the object oriented version.
