MIT/GNU +Scheme is best suited to programming large applications with a rapid +development cycle. +.LP +There are two executable programs. The programs are functionally +identical, but use different garbage collectors. +The +.B scheme +program uses a standard two\-space copying garbage collector. This +optimizes performance but uses a lot of memory. The +.B bchscheme +program uses a special two\-space copying garbage collector with one +heap in memory and the other on the disk. This makes garbage +collection slower but uses less memory. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.LP +These are some of the more common command\-line options.
