Update to Racket 6.6
Changes in Racket 6.6 - The new Macro Profiler command-line tool (`raco macro-profiler`) shows how macros contribute to the final expanded code size of a program. - Typed Racket supports intersection types. This allows the type system to track more information, and for programmers to express more precise types. - Typed Racket produces up to 4x smaller compiled files compared with Racket 6.5, reducing the size of the Racket distribution by 50M. - Typed Racket issues warnings in cases where the contract generated for `Any` was not strict enough in the past. These warnings will become errors in a future release. Warnings are enabled via View -> Show Log in DrRacket, and shown by default on command-line Racket. - Typed Racket enforces uses of `cast` more correctly, by checking both the "casted-to" and "casted-from" types. Previously, only the former were checked. In some cases, this will produce contract errors in programs that did not have errors before. - `syntax-parse` raises an error when an ellipsis pattern has an empty match rather than diverging, and it logs a warning when it statically detects a nullable pattern, such as `((~seq) ...)`. In the next version of Racket, it will reject the pattern instead, and it will remove special handling that currently makes some uses of such patterns terminate. - `htdp/dir`: The `create-dir` function delivers data information for files in a new field. The domain of its functions are backwards compatible. Changes in Racket 6.5 - Typed Racket and the racket/contract library generate code with lower overhead, speeding up typed/untyped interaction in a number of gradual typing programs we studied. - Macros written using `syntax-parse` automatically emit more accurate error messages. - The contract profiler captures costs from more contract combinators, including all those in the main distribution. - Hash table and set iteration, via both existing and new non-generic sequences, is more performant, up to twice as fast on microbenchmarks. - The Racket optimizer detects many more optimization opportunities, including when variables always hold numbers. - The `db` library supports multi-result statements in MySQL. - The `net/dns` library supports SRV records. - The `racket/unix-socket` library supports listen and accept operations.
