So the general question, quite apart from the Cell BE, is how does Chicken handle a fixed stack size, and / or a fixed amount of memory for both instructions and data? I think each SPE (Synergistic Processing Element) on the Cell BE has 512K of memory IIRC.
I don't know the least bit about the Cell arch, and assume that such a fine grained parallel system might be rather problematic for Chicken. But stack-overflow is detected by explicit checks and you can set the size of the nursery to whatever you like. cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
