<daviid>str1ngs: I pushed a fix for (g-golf hl-api object), so that it also imports so called fundamental type classes, pull highly recommened

<civodul>we still have non-deterministic gensyms in .go files, as in: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/20272

<heisenberg-25>Hi, where can I find version 2.9 of guile?

<heisenberg-25>I am building it from the source at git://git.sv.gnu.org/guile.git and the build is failing

<civodul>hi heisenberg-25!

<civodul>you can find the latest pre-release at https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/guile

<heisenberg-25>Hello civodul :)

<heisenberg-25>Okay, let me try that

<heisenberg-25>Btw, has anyone faced this issue `Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS`?

<civodul>did you see it while running the test suite?

<civodul>specifically the test-out-of-memory program

<heisenberg-25>no, I am get it when I stress test my program

<civodul>ok

<civodul>that's a message from libgc that one sees only when allocating huge amounts of memory

<heisenberg-25>guile uses boehm gc, right?

<civodul>yes

<civodul>aka. "libgc"

<heisenberg-25>I am building it with `./configure --enable-large-config` and then building guile manually

<heisenberg-25>hopefully that will fix it

<civodul>could be, i never had to use --enable-large-config

<heisenberg-25>yeah, I using guile to process huge dbs and it is complaining.

<civodul>heh

<heisenberg-25>are ther any benchmarks comparing guile's performance to other languages or scheme implementations?

<civodul>there's https://ecraven.github.io/r7rs-benchmarks/

<civodul>which shows the broader picture

<jcowan>What would be the point of having benchmarks if you couldn't rig them in your favor?

<jcowan>(not ecraven's, he's an honest broker)

<ecraven>hehe, I'd love to rig things, but I still haven't started on writing my own implementation

<ecraven>well, I started many times and many years ago, but haven't gotten anywhere useful yet

<str1ngs>daviid: thanks will do

<nly>how to make a custom repl for Guile? I want the repl to do one extra step after evaluation, this didn't work: (define eval (compose display eval))

<nly>make-language i think

<nly>got it :)
