by the way, do you know 'gnucash' _is_ a guile script ? The whole package
consists of libraries, glade files and scheme files. Nothing else (but html
documentation). I did not notice before looking at
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?page=14&word=gnucash&version=unstable&arch=i386&case=insensitive&searchmode=filelist
page 15 and following ones. So, is guile _really_ lacking performances ?
My personal feeling would be rather that performance sensitive procedures
should be implemented in C(++) while everything more concerned with 'logic'
decision, interactivity with the user, etc, is better developped and
maintained with the help of guile. (Or any Scheme incarnation at that point.)
Something similar to 'inlining vs function call' problem somehow ? Comments ?
Best,
