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, -T

Commenting out the "use lib" made no difference. It takes ten second for my code to start. Also, I do not understand what you mean by "zef". If I don't use zef to install the modules called out, my code won't run. -T
