[Jscheme-user] fannkuch benchmark

[Ken A. <kan...@bb...>]

I've added a src/benchmark/fannkuch directory.
This contains the fannkuch benchmark in several languages as well as a performance analysis i did a decade ago.  Its a very C favorable benchmark but both Lisp and Java to pretty well at it too, so its a baseline to indicate raw Java power.  

Needless to say, JScheme does not do well on this benchmark, but it's already lead to some improvements in JScheme.

The Bean shell guys have been worried about performance lately - people have stopped using bsh because of performance and other issues.  So, i wrote a reflection microbenchmark that we can use to calibrate the JVM and also see how much overhead JScheme adds.
