As a rule, interpreted code has a smaller memory footprint than natively compiled programs. Even interpreted on a several hundred MHz classic RISC microcontroller, Lisp will chew through a million cons cells a second or more - an order of magnitude or so faster than the old Lisp machines in the 80s were and they used to run giant CAD systems on those to design aircraft and stuff. (Albeit slowly...) |
