Alas, only if you are in the sweet spot of: 1) programs don't run for too long 2) fixnums are sufficiently large 3) jiffies aren't too precise On a 32-bit system with microsecond resolution (which does not necessarily mean microsecond precision), (current-jiffy) returns bignums after 17 minutes, assuming the largest fixnum is 2^30. I tried to get this fixed at the last minute by allowing jiffies to wrap around, but it didn't pass the WG. -- A few times, I did some exuberant stomping about, John Cowan like a hippo auditioning for Riverdance, though co...@ccil.org I stopped when I thought I heard something at http://ccil.org/~cowan the far side of the room falling over in rhythm with my feet. --Joseph Zitt _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
