It is flattering for the Racket language that someone would go to all
the trouble of making a translator so that they could continue to
program in Racket, even though they were using a Common Lisp backend. :)
I think that blog entry was an introductory programming tutorial, and it
was not focused on performance.
Before you spend time on a translator that might be a distraction from
your real work, perhaps you will find that Racket programs can be
written to be fast enough for your needs, using the normal Racket
compiler and virtual machine.
What kind of programs are you making, and what are your requirements?
Neil V.
