Parrot is the virtual machine originally designed for Perl 6.

What technical capabilities does the Parrot VM offer that competing virtual machines such as the Java Virtual Machine (JVM)/Hotspot VM and Common Language Runtime (CLR) lack?

Parrot is the virtual machine originally designed for Perl 6.

There are now two VMs originally designed for Perl 6; commits to MoarVM began in 2012.

What technical capabilities does the Parrot VM offer that competing virtual machines such as the Java Virtual Machine (JVM)/Hotspot VM and Common Language Runtime (CLR) lack?

In another answer on this page, Reini Urban, the current (April 2015) Parrot lead dev, provides a brief comparison of Parrot with the JVM and CLR VM.

According to Reini, a key advantage Parrot has over MoarVM is "effectively lock-less threads".
