Description
https://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6-dev/2017-05-02#i_14521198
Basically, it is fast enough for regular queries, but sometimes not fast enough when people throw their code into it. There's probably no way we can solve it, because sometimes this code is just way too slow, but at least it would improve the situation a bit.
