I wasn't able to view the video, but from its web site, Factor is sort
of Lisp-like in terms of having latent types and garbage collection.
Anyone know if the programming experience is really that different from
Lisp?  As does Lisp, it will require a lot more machine resources than
Forth.  It says it wants 128 meg of ram, though that seems excessive.
There are plenty of good Lisp dialects that run in 1 meg or less, maybe
even 100k or less.  Except for some mostly-useless toy implementations
they can't really get to the 10k range the way Forth can.
