* Package name : ypsilon Version : 0.9.6-update3 Upstream Author : Yoshikatsu Fujita * URL : http://code.google.com/p/ypsilon/ * License : BSD Programming Lang: C++, Scheme Description : An implementation of R6RS Scheme with mostly concurrent garbage collection Ypsilon is an implementation of the Scheme programming language which conforms to the latest standard R6RS. It achieves a remarkably short garbage collection pause time and improved performance during parallel execution because it implements "mostly concurrent garbage collection", which is optimized for the multi-core CPU system. It implements the full features of R6RS and the R6RS standard libraries. It also features a built-in foreign function interface for integration with C. Although there are many Scheme implementations in Debian, I think it is worthwhile to include another one because it is fully R6RS compliant, runs on amd64 as well as i386, and is small. Currently, only plt-scheme fulfills the latter two requirements but it is very large.
