From: Fritz Heinrichmeyer Date: 2001-08-22T19:03:12+09:00 Subject: [ruby-talk:20100] Re: [patch] block memory allocation scheme - bmalloc ocaml is compiled bytecode or machine code. The one with speed > C is machine compiled of course. Common lisp systems offer Interpreter and compiler (CLISP: Bytecode, CMUCL: machine code). Ocaml and Common Lisp Implementations have one in common: They are technically far beyond, but only few people like syntax (Lisp) or syntax and solving type puzzles all the time (Ocaml). (OFF-TOPIC, mode dream on) But it should be possible to implement Ruby on a Common Lisp system.
