"Marco Maggi":
4. If a garbage collector allows to remove the need for "scm_remember_upto_here" it must be adopted even if it makes Guile slower and it raises memory usage a bit (or more than a bit).
If we replace "should" with "must", I agree. Regarding the HBGC, a few nonscientific tests earlier this year showed that HBGC had _much_ lower latency than Guile's garbage collector. I am planning to measure the difference in latency properly quite soon, and if what I suspect is correct, that the HBGC has significant lower latency, this is another "should" for replacing the old one, even if the new one is a little bit slower and use a little bit more memory. _______________________________________________ Guile-user mailing list Guile-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-user
