I've got to find some way to decrease the frequency of GC in
guile-1.3.4. I've got a C++ program that uses guile extensively, and
when the work load reaches a certain point, guile starts gc'ing almost
continuously. Maybe adding in the generational gc would help; is this
easy/ somewhat reliable to do?
If I can't figure out how to tweak the GC, I'll have to rewrite the
main data structures using STL <ack>. So, the situation is dire ;^)
