Oleksandr, thank you for the report. Please confirm, what does *CPU report under the src64 version on the Win10/Windows Subsystem? If it is emu then it is running the emulated version of the 64-bit version, which is good but not optimal for performance
I have a 32-bit windows 10 machine and the Windows Subsystem for Linux was not available on 32-bit as of a few months ago, which is one of the reasons I started working on the win-x86-64 port. If the native, assembly, version of PicoLisp 64 runs under Win10/x64 then that would be great. I will still continue to work on my port as I would like to support those without access to win10 (myself included).
