The version you install is 1.1, but it is incorrectly specified in coops.setup. I have fixed this and tagged a new version (1.2).

You have to try it out. Performance largely depends on how well the internal method-call cache can be utilized. Repeated calls of the same method will cache the result of method-lookup, otherwise the method has to be looked up (and parameter classes be matched), which is a costly process. Do you use high optimization switches? cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
