Hurrah! I've actually been lurking on the gambit & chicken lists to see if
anyone would try something like this...
Has anyone used chicken for multiprocessor systems?
I.e. with low-level threading that can take advantage of dual-core systems.
(this could be fun to integrate with Henry Baker's EGAL paper
(http://home.pipeline.com/~hbaker1/ObjectIdentity.html) and his
Cheney-on-the-MTA paper that CHICKEN already implements... for certain values
of "fun" :)
I know multi-core support is one of Erlang's goals for this-coming year, and
there have been some requests on the Gambit list for this lately, but I haven't
found too many systems (scheme or otherwise) supporting this "now".
cheers,
