I'm currently hiding nothing :).

I've the latest ActiveState PERL installed on my machine (ActivePerl-5.22.1.2201-MSWin32-x64-299574).

I've uploaded on my FTP both file i used for my tests. I'm running a Windows 10 home edition (it's my personnal laptop, as i'm at home these days), with a Quad Core 3.1/16 Gb.

To give you an idea, a grep + wc command give me a result of 10 s, java or c#, 30s, c++, 48s, php 7, 50s, ruby 85s, python, 346s, powershell 682s, VBS, 1031s, Free Pascal,72,58s, VB.NET,100,63s...

Maybe something related to the perl distribution you think ? I will try with another distribution.
