Three wins in one commit.
1) heap-snapshot / heap-restore (asm arena primitive)
asm has no GC. Long-running servers leaked ~64 MB per heap growth.
Two new builtins let a programmer capture r15 and later rewind to
it, recycling intermediate allocations in O(1) memory.
Python + C get no-op versions so portable .lsp code can call them
unconditionally.
examples/http-server.lsp now takes a snapshot at top level and
rewinds after every request. Measured asm RSS: 88 KB initial,
100 KB after 100 requests, 100 KB after 1100 requests — flat.
Prior behavior was +64 MB per few thousand requests.
2) examples/http-client-bench.lsp — native HTTP load generator
Uses only the six tcp-* primitives + current-time-ms. Runs
identically in all three impls. Eliminates curl's ~2 ms/req
fork+exec overhead, so real server throughput shows up:
Python server ← Python client 2403 rps
C server ← C client 2439 rps
asm server ← asm client 2994 rps
asm server ← C client 2500 rps
The earlier curl-based bench was clamped near 400 rps by the
client; the actual servers handle 6–7× that.
3) MOAD-0001 cleanup
- c/builtins.c bi_string_replace: strncmp-at-every-position
(hand-rolled, sedimentary) → strstr (libc-tuned, typically
Boyer-Moore-Horspool). O(N*k) → O(N + matches*k).
- uncommonlisp.py _tokenize_lines: per-token src.count('\n', 0, pos)
→ precompute line_starts once, bisect_right per token.
O(N*M) → O(M + N log M).
Also adds current-time-ms to all three impls so benchmarks can
time themselves without relying on the Python/C float `current-time`
(asm has no floats). Seconds-since-epoch tagged as a 61-bit int.
Test counts unchanged: 571 py + 132 asm + 189 shared + 83 c = 975.
All green via make test-all.
