I thought I'd share some observations concerning a big difference in server speed I've observered between CMUCL (19d) and SBCL (0.9.18). I've been working on a small website consisting of six or eight pages, each with mixed text and graphics (images from a few k up to 80k) using Hunchentoot as the server. Running it with CMUCL I noticed that the page load times were rather slow (2-5 seconds to all the images) I tried serving all the images out of ram (as in Edi's example), but it really made little differnce. It didn't matter whether I was browsing it via localhost or over the internet - the server was too slow for anything but a testbench. After the problems I had trying to get SSL to work with CMUCL, I decided to get the test site running with SBCL. (I hadn't worked with SBCL before, so it took some reworking). It was well worth the trouble: the page loading speed is now so fast I can't really measure it - fractions of a second. Question: does anyone know a way to profile handlers? I tried the usual method using TIME, but its alot of trouble trying to capture its output, and anyway it returns all 0 times and a few thousand cons', which is clearly not right. Regards, --Jeff
