unzip ~/public_html/tmp/bundles/xitomatl-20110103.zip 0.07s user 0.03s system 77% cpu 0.135 total So there's quite some room for improvement. Other data points: Ikarus runs the benchmark in 0.55 seconds, Racket v5.1.0.2 takes 2.39 seconds. For Dorodango, I intend to refactor ZIP support to allow for different backends, selectable at runtime, and implement a libzip binding. This will get reasonable performance on implementations that don't have a native-code compiler as fancy as Ikarus's. Regards, Rotty -- Andreas Rottmann -- <http://rotty.yi.org/>
