Very good! Thanks or the timing results, this is certainly very interesting and I'm happy that Spock performs so well, considering that it uses an implementation strategy that brings out the worst in JS engines. BTW, did you use the "-optimize" switch? cheers, felix _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
