You can create a hash-table with string=? as the comparing procedure,
which is likely to be faster (just turn the number into a string before
using it as a hash-key).

When the hash-table is full, what is the value of

(##sys#size (##sys#slot <hash-table> 1))

?

In any way, I'd love to see the code.
