[Chicken-users] help please

[Linh Dang]

Hi

I'm a newbie trying to learning scheme/chicken. I have a perl script
that I try to rewrite in scheme. the problem is the perl version took
5 secs to run while the compiled (with -benchmark-mode option) scheme
version took 6 min to run. -profile doesn't help because most of the
work is done in a single function.

Anyone has subjective opinion on the efficiency of

        - (read-lines)
        - (string-match)
        - hash tables

Thanx
