f41cb00ce2 Fixed a stack leak. Now observing actual performance.
* src/*.[ch]:  Replaced `scm_mem2symbol' by `scm_from_locale_symboln' and
  `scm_ulong2num' by `scm_from_ulong'.
* src/vm_system.c (tail-call):  Fixed stack leak (SP lacked decrement by
  one more Scheme object in the tail-recursive case).
* benchmark/measure.scm (measure):  Make sure we are using the compiled
  procedure (i.e. a program object) when measuring.  This yields better
  results than before.  :-)
* doc/guile-vm.texi:  Augmented the instruction set documentation with
  branch instructions, `call' and `tail-call'.

2d80426a3e Improved the VM's efficiency. The VM is as fast as the interpreter. :-(
* benchmark/lib.scm:  New file.
* benchmark/measure.scm:  New file.
* README:  Added useful pointers to various threads.
* doc/guile-vm.texi:  Fixed the description of `load-program' (it now expects
  _immediate_ integers).
* src/*.[ch]:  Use immediate integers whereever possible, as in the original
  code.  For `CONS', use `scm_cell' rather than `scm_cons'.
