Apropos: I was wondering why I couldn't limit memory in a Racket program directly -- for running from the command-line -- as distinct from in Dr Racket, but the following transcript shed doubts on Dr Racket:
Welcome to DrRacket, version 5.3.6 [3m]. Language: racket; memory limit: *256 MB*. > (/ (current-memory-use) (expt 10 6)) 900 52839/125000 > (collect-garbage) > (/ (current-memory-use) (expt 10 6)) 660 25687/31250 [Replicated in 5.91.] Does (current-memory-use) include overhead for e.g. the DrRacket runtime?
