Rakudo Tallinn-286-g9690f6e generates PIR code that uses the get_integer vtables much more than necessary. For example nqp::p6bool(1 ?? 0 !! 1) and nqp::p6box_i(1 ?? 0 !! 1) both generate code that goes through the get_integer vtable. It seems to be a fairly common idiom in the setting: $ ack 'set \$I\d+, \$P\d+$' src/gen/CORE.setting.pir |wc -l 130 I guess that the majority of those can be avoided. In a profile of the htmlify script in the perl6/doc repo on github the Mu.get_integer vtable shows up as the second highest individual block (though still fairly low with 3% exclusive time). Cheers, Moritz
