Long loops #19

Closed timfel closed 9 years ago

timfel commented 9 years ago

We end up with call_assembler entries and thus forcing of the current context to the heap in all our BitBlt loops, because they get too long (I'm guessing). Anything we can do about this? Maybe @cfbolz has an idea.

This is a general problem that we have in several interpreters, e.g. Pycket and Pyrolog. I hope to be able to come up with a solution at some point.
