I'm a lispworks user for a few projects. The killers, generally, for an enterprise project are the smaller binaries and java interface. I know of a few places that write gui apps in lispworks, but many (most?) projects with a user interface use some web framework stuff and only do the backend in lisp. The java is a killer feature for lisp adoption. A lot of companies use java heavily and being able to easily interface with that stuff is often a technical requirement and if not a technical one, a management requirement.

> Question: is there a reason pid type control is never a thermal option? Or put another way, is there something about the desired thermal characteristics of a computer that make pid control undesirable?

I've only every seen something like this in really high reliability equipment because they're worried about repeated thermal expansion causing cracks in the boards/solder joints. There is, often, heaters available for use if the temperature gets too low. For most equipment I think that the juice just isn't worth the squeeze so it isn't done.

Runtime speed isn't much of an issue for us. There's nothing in the codebase that large or complicated enough to be slow.

I don't see what you gain with either of these that's worth enough to put in that much work and add that much complexity. linuxemu is a better solution for running Linux programs, all of the added unix junk is contained. Using GCC or clang over kencc could be useful in some cases, but there, too, I don't see what fantastic gains you get. I do see major issues there like shipping GPL code with GCC and adding a massive new codebase to the tree (it wouldn't suprise me if GCC or clang's source trees were larger than 9front's). All I really see in Harvey is feature creep and trying to make Plan 9 into Linux.

APE isn't anything like wine. It's just some libraries that give you a posix-ish api. It also doesnt use GCC at all, it uses kencc (the native plan 9 compiler) and cpp.
