Number of variables used by my program
[1/3] from: info::id-net::ch at: 20-Feb-2002 22:40
Hi all,
I got a big application did with rebol, 131 ko without core
and i want to count the variables (words) used by my program.
I have a 1.3 ghz pentium so i dont have problem to use the program.
It's very fast, but i want to know if having a lots of
variables (often not declared as /local to function) uses
a lots of resources (in the case of using the prog with 200Mhz for exemple).
Is the number of variables in memory a big factor for a slow of the
processes.
Is there a way to count them ?

[length? first system/words] should do it. It starts off around 2191, and you
run out at 4096. According to my tests, size or context of a word does not
effect performance. I am pretty sure the number of words has no effect also.

I don't think.

if memory is not a problem (32 byte at least for every var), the max number of
global word is +- 4096
