I wonder if there's been any movement on porting Termite from
Gambit to
Chicken. If you're willing to cast your problem in an Erlang-style
light, that could make for very high multicore performance indeed.
Just
spawn some child processes and start tossin' your functions at them.
I am "porting" Termite, sort-of. Tint (Tint is not Termite) is being
built from generally useful eggs slowly being added to Chicken. We
have timeouts in mailbox, remote-mailbox, and match-action. With
logging and remote-launch in nearing release. See also Thomas Chust's
rpc.
I wanted to go a different route. TinT will be one expression of a
number of ways to perform distributed programming w/ Chicken. (The
Termite syntax I coded 1st and will release last.)
