gollark: RAM use.
gollark: It seems like the problem is some somewhat broken optimization, where `pcall` somehow directly executes the real `getfenv`, ignorant of environments, if you have a function which only (or something like that?) calls a builtin. Or possibly not only builtins.

gollark: That sounds hilariously inefficient and probably wouldn't fix it.
gollark: How can I even patch this‽
