I already removed the use of the "format" egg (the code contains a commented-out version that relies only on "display"), and even completely disable the println call. It's hard to be sure, but it *looks* like the majority of the time is being spent in the division procedures. Seeing how it fares on other Schemes would be interesting though! Cheers, Peter
