perl6 --version
This is Rakudo version 2016.07.1 built on MoarVM version 2016.07
implementing Perl 6.c.

Adding a new postcircumfix operator increases compile-time by over 1 second
per operator definition.
For example​:

BEGIN my $start = now;
BEGIN { say "Compiling..." };
INIT { say "Compiled after {now - $start} seconds"; }
END { say "Done after {now - $start} seconds"; }

multi postcircumfix​:« ⦋ ⦌ » (Any $prob, Any $state) {
  $state => $prob
}
BEGIN { say "First definition after {now - $start} seconds"; }

multi postcircumfix​:« ⦋ ⦌ » (Numeric $prob, Any $state) {
  $state => $prob
}
BEGIN { say "Second definition after {now - $start} seconds"; }

multi postcircumfix​:« ⦋ ⦌ » (Str $prob, Any $state) {
  $state => $prob
}
BEGIN { say "Third definition after {now - $start} seconds"; }

multi postcircumfix​:« ⦋ ⦌ » (Int $prob, Any $state) {
  $state => $prob
}
BEGIN { say "Fourth definition after {now - $start} seconds"; }

This was made a little bit faster with Rakudo commit c99fbc67938479b518919d1651fd05db9f9f42ed, which brought in NQP commit de709396b6c267144e8a40d510764b7a91c90662. There is still the same amount of logical redundant work being done, but at least the redundant stuff runs faster.
