Hi All,
One liners are fast, but my own programs are very slow to start.
I download
https://github.com/perl6/gtk-simple/blob/master/examples/05-bars.pl6
To check it out and it also takes ten second to start.
What gives?
Many thanks,

We discussed this at our San Francisco Perl Mongers meeting today:

2. Worked for another person with macOS.
3. 10~15 second start-up delays for another person with Debian 9 and
Perl 6 built from source. top(1) showed 100+ %CPU during the start-up
delays. Once inside the REPL, there were no obvious delays. I
suggested that he install the official package:

What is your operating system? What is your Perl 6?
Is there a way to run Perl 6 with debugging, logging, profiling, etc.,
enabled, so that the user can see what Perl 6 is doing and how long it
takes?
