It works. I've tried M-x run-guile and then in the REPL:

scheme@(guile-user)> (define (add1 n)
  (+ n 1))

(define (sub1 n)
  (- n 1))

(define (o+ a b)
  (cond
   ((zero? b) a)
   (else (o+ (add1 a) (sub1 b)))))

scheme@(guile-user)> (o+ 10 10000000)
$2 = 10000010
scheme@(guile-user)> ,time (o+ 10 10000000)
$3 = 10000010
;; 0.822361s real time, 0.821115s run time.  0.000000s spent in GC.
scheme@(guile-user)>

After how much time geiser gives up? Is there any public variable for
that? 0.8s seems very little time to me.
