rtl tests

[Stefan Israelsson Tampe]

Hi,

I'm just finished debugging the rtl generator to actually compile files to the rtl VM and today I managed to get srfi-1.scm to pass all tests. 

Maybe more interesting is the performance test in the repo. And here are the vote:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RTL VM

=======:

("srfi-1.bm: fold: big" 30 

real 1.11

("srfi-1.bm: fold: small" 2000000 

real 1.18

("srfi-1.bm: drop-while: big" 30 

real 1.24

("srfi-1.bm: drop-while: small" 2000000 

real 1.27

("srfi-1.bm: map: big" 30 

real 2.95

("srfi-1.bm: map: small" 2000000 

real 2.35

("srfi-1.bm: for-each: big" 30 real 

1.88

("srfi-1.bm: for-each: small" 2000000 

real 1.72

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GUILE-2.0 VM in master?

===================

("srfi-1.bm: fold: big" 30 

real 1.47 

("srfi-1.bm: fold: small" 2000000 real 

1.29 real/iteration

("srfi-1.bm: drop-while: big" 30 real 

1.43 real/iteration

("srfi-1.bm: drop-while: small" 2000000 real 

1.23 real/iteration

("srfi-1.bm: map: big" 30 real 

3.42 real/iteration

("srfi-1.bm: map: small" 2000000 real 

2.55 real/iteration

("srfi-1.bm: for-each: big" 30 real 

2.25

("srfi-1.bm: for-each: small" 2000000 real 

1.80

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To note here are that I executed the functions from guile-2.0 VM

e.g. there is an expensive call to set upp the RTL VM for each iteration of the test. Therefore I would not judge the small cases. On the other hand the big cases shows quite a significant speedup!

Have fun!
