I was mostly just pointing out that perl6 might not be as slow as the comment you linked suggests. There seems to be something about using `perl6 -pe` that caused it to be slower than you’d expected. However, using a different approach its reasonably fast, or at least it appears reasonably comparable to the perl 5 example that was provided. Hopefully more edge cases will be discovered and fixed as the implementation matures as well.
