Performance and other

[Brent Fulgham <brent.fulgham@xpsystems.com>]

Someone recently forwarded me this URL:

http://www.bagley.org/~doug/shootout/

It's a benchmarking framework for a variety of languages, and all of the
sources are on-line.  There are a few implementations of Scheme (Bigloo 
and Guile) in the comparison.  However, it would be quite interesting
to see how MzScheme fares in the comparison, plus it could be useful in
indentifying weak areas in the implementation.

I'm thinking of translating a few of the test scripts over to MzScheme, but
I don't have tons of time right now.  Perhaps someone could take a look
and forward any results...

Thanks,

-Brent
