Re: [racket-users] benchmarks game

Hi Matthew, I tried on: - Windows 8.1 + RacketCS 7.8 - Linux Debian 10 + Racket 7.9 (current master branch) - Linux Debian 10 + RacketBC 7.8 All have the same behaviour: while the sequential program prints to stdout as expected in all cases (with or without `raco make` prior to running, and ru
