Seven seconds? Seven? That seems *very* long indeed. How long does it take to do: perl6 -e ‘’ ? That should be in the order of 130 msecs. If that’s the case, then you’re probably doing a lot of grammar changes to Perl 6. But without the actual code, this remains guessing. > Any workaround for this, or is this just growing pains for Perl 6? Not sure :-) Liz
