Not of that sort, though. The AOLserver does seed the the connection interpreter with commands introspected from within loaded initialized startup interpreter. It just copies (blindly) all command structures found in the initial interp, which causes quite a few problems with Tcl packages planting commands with associated delete callbacks. So the problem is not AOLserver<->Tcl integration. The problem is how the AOLserver does handle Tcl extensions and their registered commands. There is nothing Tcl (you) can do about it. But there is something AOLserver (Kris/Jim/community) can do about. I've made a patch for 3.4 which corrects above problems. I'm just qurious to find out if/how/when can it be included in the core server distro. Hey, thanks for this memory allocator implementation! These (speed) issues have been bugging me for months.
