[Chicken-users] Declare large expressions as read-only and not gc-able?

Hi all.

Is there a recommended way to declare some large expressions (> 100 MB)
in a compiled program as read-only and more importantly
as not gc-able (the garbage collector should be saved from traversing
these large structures again and again)?
Should the constant value be compiled in or should it be read from a file?
Is define-constant the right way to go?
(How do other Scheme implementation handle such cases?)

Ciao
Sven
