Maybe I'm being dense....
Why not just
 sub slow_fn {
   Timer.new(1, { print "." });
   return slow_fn_imp @_;
 }

or maybe even

 sub slow_fn {
   my $tick = 1;
   Timer.new({$tick++}, { print "." });
   return slow_fn_imp @_;
 }
For a slowly slowing timer....
?

Or to my taste,
 sub slow_fn {
   Timer.new(60, { print "..." });
   return slow_fn_imp @_;
 }
