I was just thinking about the case of processing a large file in

work). I can think of a few approaches that would seem kind-of
rakuish, but don't seem to be built-in anywhere... something like a
variant of "slurp" with an argument to specify how much you want to
slurp at a time, that'll move on to the next chunk the next time it's
invoked...
Is there anything like that kicking around that I've missed?
as a side note, there is also a .IO.CHandle.readchars($size), with
$size a default of 64 kb.

I meant .IO.CatHandle.readchars($size)
