Hi Guile's community,
I would like to use Guile as a scripting engine for a soft-realtime
software. I'm a little bit worried about the asynchronous nature of the
GC and its nondeterministic time.
Searching in the manual, I found the section 5.7.4.2 about performance
constraints, which is empty unfortunately.
Thus, does anyone had similar experiences in the past? Are my worries
even valids?

Hey Olivier!
I've heard that guile is generally faster than python, but there are
some other schemes that are faster, notably chez scheme.
I will also say that Andy Wingo (one of the guile maintainers) is
working on making guile code "within" an order of magnitude of the speed
of C code. I would say to try to build your program in guile and post
back here.
Good luck!
