[plt-scheme] Re: Appalling performance of DrScheme on Windows
I've had both Matthias's experience as well that of wooks
et al. Continuous use of DrScheme gives good response, except
maybe an occasional pause from what feels like a gc.
If I occasionally touch DrScheme, but keep an instance
running all the time, then I experience the wooks-style hangs.
I doubt if plt gurus such as Matthias ever let DrScheme
run idle :)
I've run DrScheme on several machine configs with similar
results.
- 3+GHz dual core Pentium + 512MB + Windows XP home
- 3+GHz 64-bit Pentium + 1GB + Windows XP 64-bit
- PowerBook G4 666MHz + 512MB + Tiger
BTW, is it just my perception or does DrScheme v350
run noticeably zippier than earlier versions? If its the
JIT working, woooo hoooo!
