Import MoarVM-2016.03 from wip. Short for "Metamodel On A Runtime", MoarVM is a virtual machine built especially for Rakudo Perl 6 and the NQP Compiler Toolchain. The primary backend target for the Christmas 2015 release of Perl 6, MoarVM stands out amongst the various Rakudo and NQP compilation targets by: - Running the Perl 6 specification test suite in the least time - Passing more of the Perl 6 specification tests than Rakudo Perl 6 on other backends - Having the lowest memory usage - Having the best startup time - Being fastest to build both NQP and Rakudo - and thus your Perl 6 and NQP programs too! - Being the only backend to support strings at grapheme level
