Wait, slower scrolling?

Or do you mean more responsive but slower scrolling?

That's probably a better way of saying it.  Some devices give "smooth
scroll" events with a float amount, eg. -0.15X and +0.05Y.  But Racket
doesn't support smooth scrolling and each of these were translated into
a full scroll event, meaning scrolling was in the ballpark of 4-10 times
too fast and was jumpy (even trying to move very slowly on my trackpad
would send multiple scroll events).  I simply made it accumulate the
scroll events until they got to +/-1.0 before giving a Racket scroll
event, so it scrolls more consistently with everything else.


Or am I missing something here?

The gtk scrolling fix is probably not worth noting on the announcement.
And actually you might call it slower scrolling.

Typed Racket more efficiently represents and computes types and
propositions, resulting in significantly faster type checking for many
programs. For more details, see this blog post by Andrew Kent:
