Oops, i am having some issues with not getting to the list from my other email address. Here is a reply i sent for the record.
--- Thank you, Matthew. The following code takes around 250ms on my machine. Any idea why? I was expecting it to be fast since the module is based on racket/base. #lang racket/base (require syntax/location) (require racket/place) (module test racket/base (provide place-main) racket (define (place-main pch) (void))) (time (place-wait (dynamic-place (quote-module-path test) 'place-main))) Nate On Tue, Nov 24, 2020 at 8:35 AM Nathaniel W Griswold <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you, Matthew. > > The following code takes around 250ms on my machine.
