10:44:27moon-childoh, yeah, cus the max time you can stall the gc for is the time it takes to process a single definition. So probably no danger of its getting too far behind the mtuator
10:46:49hayleyIt'd still be tricky to get each thread to de-optimise without the kind of de-optimisation associated with JIT compilers though. Safepoints, of course, but we still need to enter de-optimised code, or code optimised for new layouts.
15:39:30Bikeremembered the fasl format doesn't have random-states, but then, how could it, in any remotely portable way. that's annoying.
15:50:40yitziIncless has the same problem...although it can punt to the implementation to implement print-object... or do contionals for each implementation.
18:06:05jcowanThe representation of a random-state must exist, but is quite deliberately not portable.
