It really depends. The question really should be, "Is Perl 6 fast enough?" For my purposes, the answer is almost always yes. I can imagine some applications where the answer would be no, but then I would probably be looking at C/C++ for a solution, anyway. Language bench-racing has really begun to look counter-productive to me.
