[!REBOL3-OLD1]

Ok, where best to post the answer?
I will post it in the bug report.

Do/next I defined my %build.r dialect with it
...and later %spider.r dialect, %xyplot.r dialect, using %build.r
I am using %build.r instead of Compose as I advertised many times
BTW, BrianH is a co-author of it

Ladislav: random ticket updated with code

Carl, there are at least a half-dozen mezzanine/library function 
requests that are waiting for DO/next. Your continuation word idea 
is good though :)

For compat, it could be different refinement name.
The difference in overhead is large, but not sure how much it matters 
to anyone.
Ladislav

no prob with me even with the same name
overhead: yes, I found a test showing really huge diff when not generating 
blocks every now and then
BrianH

It would matter to me. If DO/next were more efficient, I would not 
consider use of it to be a sign of a bad function :)
I'm not that worried about compatibility here - see bug#666 :)

It would be simple to search for, like copy/deep which is also improved 
in R3.

thanks, Carl. BTW, I am using www.rebol.org as a truly random source, 
since it is so easy in REBOL
errata: www.random.org

I just read bug #666. Cool number and cool ticket at once :-)
BrianH

When I saw that number coming up, I had to do something appropriate 
there :)

I just lost my connection to rebol.net -- quite odd -- as if a router 
along the way just stopped working.
See R3 Chat #4403 regarding how to get new R3 to test DO/next.

Carl, btw, something in liquid is causing a  prior versio of R3 to 
crash.  I'll try next week with the latest version, there might be 
some new tickets coming as part of the R3 conversion of liquid.

BTW, I estimate DO/next overhead about 30% of full speed DO.
Pekr

[14868]
quite slow, no?
Carl

Maxim: is it just the math part of Liquid or includes graphics?
Pekr, no... that's very fast!
Pekr

There were no changes in gfx kernel for quite some time, no? Well, 
but maybe it could be related due to some other changes?
Maxim

carl: just the dataflow part.... the graphics engine is obviously 
not compatible.
Carl

[14873]
In other words, it is running at 66% of full speed of REDUCE!!

its an object within an object, so I am thinking it has something 
to do with binding.
Carl

[14875x2]
Maxim: ah good, I look foward to seeing the problem.
BTW, there is a bug in objects related to a copy loop if the object 
references itself (directly or via a block).
BrianH

[14877]
Is that  new?
Maxim

I can't wait to convert liquid  to a datatype, its going to be soooo 
much more sexy, and easy for everyone to "get".
Carl

No, it's in the bug db, but under an odd ticket title.
Maxim

the only thing is that the inner object (the shared class) gets a 
reference to the outer object (the instance) as its first parameter, 
just like the R2 face/feel

Maxim - so you are the second one to BrianH waiting for user-types 
:-)
Maxim
2-Jun-2009
[14882x2]
I've been waiting for user types since core beta  ;-)
thats core v1 :-)
BrianH

[14884]
I'm OK with coming in second here, as long as user-defined types 
can include function types :)

Carl - maybe we could just rename May plan to the June one? It came 
late and imo if you were supposed to write new one, it would not 
be much different, or would it?
Maxim - you are so long here remembering R1? :-)
Carl

reduci: func ["Example of reduce using DO/next" blk] [
	out: make block! 3
	forskip blk 0 [append/only out do/next blk 'blk]
	out
]

Please, a new June plan that also recaps the May accomplishments 
:)
Maxim, I haven't been here that long - just got here for the release 
of R2, though I did use R1 for one project.
Maxim

I remember eagerly waiting for view  :-)

The View alpha/beta list was fun :)

It was called Ally, and I still have it archived :-)
Sterling Newton, Jeff Kreis, Holger Kruse, Jim Goodnow - RT was big 
company back then :-)

the thing I miss most is reading about REBOL on every tech news site 
on the net every other week.

well, we are so small, that we don't even update rebolweek properly. 
It will be more difficult to get noticed once again, as we missed 
some momentum, but it can be done. Done by example, by some work 
- e.g. posting news to OSNews.com etc., or wrapping something like 
Google Wave, showing the world JS UI is still slow crap :-)
