How fast is your Perl11 project compared to Perl5 and Python?

Faster than both. But more importantly much better security, much more features, and continuous improvements. perl5 is just continuous destruction.

That's interesting. I've seen you make these statements, but have never been able to confirm even though I've meant to. How many actual users do you have btw?

The more practical question would be not how fast it is (supposing it's quite fast), but how many features isn't there yet.
