How can I run my own instance of this

>>45,46
Thanks for the repo update.

so they should be safe

OK, then. I see that string->number returns #f on invalid inputs, so >>44 and similar are harmless 404s. A resource utilization test for string->number:

>>> ">>1-" + "9" * (4096 - 4)

Since irregex claims to support PCRE ranges
http://synthcode.com/scheme/irregex/#SECTION_3.3
if this causes a spike it can be mitigated by switching the range regex numbers from [1-9][0-9]* to [1-9][0-9]{0,2} with the limit raised when *max-posts* gains digits.

I also have a nerd rant about filter-func/posts-range design for another post.

Since your BIOS is being a Basic Inducer Of Suffering, here is an implementation of >>57 to eliminate delete-duplicates, in the MIT/GNU Scheme 9.1.1 from the Ubuntu LTS, while keeping as much of your structure as possible:

(define (posts-range range)
  (define (expand-range x)
    (cond ((> (length x) 1)
           (let* ((a (string->number (car x)))
                  (b (string->number (cadr x)))
                  (low (if (> a *max-posts*) *max-posts* a))
                  (high (if (> b *max-posts*) *max-posts* b))
                  (count (+ (- high low) 1)))
             (if (> high low)
                 (lambda () (iota count low))
                 (lambda () (list low)))))
          (else (let* ((a (string->number (car x)))
                       (low (if (> a *max-posts*) *max-posts* a)))
                  (lambda () (list low))))))
  (define (invoke-loop-set vector lamb)
    (for-each (lambda (e) (vector-set! vector e #t))
              (lamb)))
  (let* ((r1 (string-split range #\,))
         (r2 (map (lambda (x) (string-split x #\-)) r1))
         (r3 (map expand-range r2))
         (vec (make-vector (+ *max-posts* 1) #f)))
    (for-each (lambda (e) (invoke-loop-set vec e))
              r3)
    vec))

Here are some tests, keeping in mind that posts-range runs after the regex match:

1 ]=> (posts-range "1,3,5,7,290-300")
;Value 13: #(#f #t #f #t #f #t #f #t #f #f #f #f [...] #f #f #f #f #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t)
1 ]=> (posts-range "1-9999999999")
;Value 14: #(#f #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t [...] #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t)
1 ]=> (define fulltest (apply string-append (cons "1-300" (make-list (quotient (- 4096 7) 6) ",1-300"))))

At this point fulltest is >>50.

1 ]=> (posts-range fulltest)
;Value 17: #(#f #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t [...] #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t #t)
1 ]=> (define (timeit proc)
   (with-timings proc
      (lambda (run-time gc-time real-time)
         (write (internal-time/ticks->seconds run-time))
         (write-char #\space)
         (write (internal-time/ticks->seconds gc-time))
         (write-char #\space)
         (write (internal-time/ticks->seconds real-time))
         (newline))))
1 ]=> (timeit (lambda () (posts-range "1,3,5,7,290-300")))
0. 0. 0.
1 ]=> (timeit (lambda () (posts-range fulltest)))
.04 0. .044

The time for fulltest fluctuates between 4 and 5 centiseconds, but since the homepage has:

Runs well on "el cheapo" VPS

I recommend both regex refinements as well. To integrate with filter-func, here is a diff against the current gitlab version, which is the last commit of "20 Feb, 2020". This one is untested because I do not yet have a local instance, but it is simple enough that it should work.

Here are the two regex refinements for digit count >>47 and interval count >>49. The SYNCs are there for grep. The irregex PCRE ranges are linked in >>47.

With all of the above applied, the maximum stress that can be put on posts-range is:

1 ]=> (define maxtest (apply string-append (cons "1-300" (make-list 11 ",1-300"))))
1 ]=> (posts-range maxtest)

which runs in zero time.
>>1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300,1-300
If the server machine is an honest-to-God potato, the 11 can be further reduced.

>>64-67
Wow! Thanks for the patches. I can't express my gratitude enough in those apocalyptic times. (I just managed to have a working system again, I'm installing MIT Scheme 9.2 and will detail the long overdue installation of SchemeBBS)

While the regex seems correct when I try it at the REPL, there's a weird bug with the transform rule, as in >>65:
>>1,10-20,30

I have to sort this out.
