time and now showing different time?

Re: Could method calls warn in void context?

Memory leak in Rakudo Star 2014.12.1 ?

I have Rakudo Start 2014.12.1 compiled with MoarVM running on OSX and it seems to be leaking memory, but I need your help in confirming my understanding: I created this script to show it: use v6; sub MAIN(Int $count) { prompt("Start"); for 1 .. $count -> $i { my $x = 42; }
