Subject: Re: [racket] future on dual
The program below has strange behaviour:
I run it from DrScheme on a dual core machine with two processors.
No other applications active.
When I run it the first time it uses 100% of both processors.
Running it again without leaving DrScheme, it apparently uses one processor
at a time only,
It looks like you've found a futures bug. This is being caused by the
interaction between futures and custodians (which DrRacket is using) --
we've identified a fix, but need a little more testing to ensure that it's
working properly. I will keep you posted here.
