in thread A $dayjob Perl 6 program that runs 40x faster on the JVM than on Parrot

You guys are relentless aren't you?

From the first Rakudo/JVM "hello world" to being able to run substantial programs such as the subject of this thread took a further 6 weeks. Again, iirc, diakopter estimates that getting Rakudo/MVM to the same place will take about the same time.

Of course, things might not go according to plan. But my point is to respond to chromatic's misleading FUD -- "if MoarVM ever runs any Perl 6 code".
