By chance I came across the following blog post about Guile 2.2, apparently it's due out later this year. http://wingolog.org/archives/2013/11/26/a-register-vm-for-guile
Most of it is technical and above my head but the summary is that it should be significantly faster: "A simple count-up-to-a-billion test runs in 9 seconds on Guile 2.2, compared to 24 seconds in Guile 2.0." I thought I'd share it, in light of recent discussion about performance/speed. Looks like good things ahead. -Paul P.S. Here are two additional blog posts with more about Guile 2.2 http://wingolog.org/archives/2014/01/12/a-continuation-passing-style-intermediate-language-for-guile http://wingolog.org/archives/2014/01/19/elf-in-guile -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Guile-2-2-speed-improvements-tp161358.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
