- the heap block size. The number of object that can be stored in a block
heap is n*1024, and the number of block heap we can use is only limited by
the virtual memory of the computer.
- -ds=<n>
- the stack size. The number of object's reference that can be stored
on the stack. n is a number of kilobytes.

The heap block size does not seem to have big impact on performance yet. The
default value is 32k now which seems to be a good value.
During the initialization of Qscheme, the interpreters tries to load a file
named s.scm . The location where this file should be is:
- in the current directory
- in a directory designated by the QS_LIB environment variable.
So, to sumarize, the search order is always first the current directory and
then the directory pointed by the QS_LIB environement variable.
