The 4.0 series does much better job in interp initialization. This is now more/less entirely under Tcl control so you can adjust it to suit your own needs. Speed is IMHO, dependent on the size of interp state which needs to be re-created. With some C-level code you won't be able to speed-up things that much that it would justify the effort needed. I'd say, people should start looking at 4.0 and see how we can improve what's there, if it ain't sufficient and/or not fast enough. I've heard from Jeff, that ActiveState is working (or has already) an Tcl_CloneInterp() (or similar) function coded in C. This might be something to consider as well. Cheers Zoran I.
