14:18:39borodustif my lisp image conses too many SAPs (by looking at #'room), what for I should look first? Too much FFI?
14:19:24borodustmaybe some specific kind of FFI is prone to consing too many SAPs...
14:30:29scymtymis the problem the memory lost to SAPs that are retained although they should be garbage or is the problem the CPU time for allocating and collecting the SAPs
15:58:36borodustscymtym: it's not the problem per se, cuz they are properly deallocated during garbage collection
15:58:46borodusti just wonder where the gargabe is coming from
16:02:28scymtymborodust: i see. i have no good advice then. maybe compile with SPEED 3 and look for SAP boxing notes (I think they say "doing SAP to pointer conversion")
16:18:06borodustyeah, there are some "SAP to pointer coercion" things, i'll look into them
17:18:12mrcode_is there a way to make an array of uint8 with sbcl and get an address of an underlying storage or is this something best done with aliens ?
