I couldn't wait. :) % ../../test_prog mops.pbc Iterations: 100000000 Estimated ops: 200000000 Elapsed time: 9.948440 M op/s: 20.103654 % ../../test_prog mops_p.pbc Iterations: 100000000 Estimated ops: 200000000 done Elapsed time: 20.994231 M op/s: 9.526427 Not as bad a slow-down as I expected. And that's *all* PMCs. A slightly more sensible loop, saving one PMC lookup gives you: % ../../test_prog mops_p.pbc Iterations: 100000000 Estimated ops: 200000000 done Elapsed time: 18.681786 M op/s: 10.705615 -- Can you sum up plan 9 in layman's terms? It does everything Unix does only less reliably - kt
