Outdated CHICKEN release
This is a manual page for an old and unsupported version of CHICKEN. If you are still using it, please consider migrating to the latest version. You can find the manual for the latest release here.
Bugs and limitations
- Compiling large files takes too much time.
- If a known procedure has unused arguments, but is always called without those parameters, then the optimizer repairs the procedure in certain situations and removes the parameter from the lambda-list.
- port-position currently works only for input ports.
- Leaf routine optimization can theoretically result in code that thrashes, if tight loops perform excessively many mutations.
