Re:Brief History of JIT in MoarVM for Perl 6 by b2gills on Wednesday July 25, 2018 @04:11PM (#17612361)
Someone once posted code that they had written in both Perl 6 and C/C++. The Perl 6 code was shorter, arguably easier to understand, and they said it was also faster for their data.

My guess would be that the strings had to be copied more often in the C/C++ code.
