They don't have to be full interps, but if they're slim and if we have good memory isolation between interps, we can get a huge advantage. To wit: any allocated data local to the interp can have *very* cheap memory management (stop the interp GC, for example) because it doesn't need much data and all of its data is local to the interp. -- c _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
