 In the script `tools/update-responses/update_responses` we use the `YAML`
 perl module. However on https://metacpan.org/pod/YAML we can read:
   If you want robust and fast YAML processing using the normal Dump/Load
 API, please consider switching to YAML::XS. It is by far the best Perl
 module for YAML at this time.

 So we should probably switch to `YAML::XS`. We are already using
 `YAML::XS` in rbm.
