Great blog post! I decided to finally dip my toes into racket CS, so I tried 
some old code I had lying around. All programs are at least a little bit 
faster, which is always nice to see. None are very big apps though, most are 
just automation of boring tasks an run for less than one minute.

 I do however have a small port of SRFI-171 (my own srfi; more or less a scheme 
version of clojure's transducers, implemented in much the same way) where the 
difference was more pronounced.

I imagine procedure calls have gotten cheaper, because the overhead almost 
split in half!

So from my point of view everything just got faster, which is like a second 
Christmas!

Best regards
