Adjustable Arrays

[cartier@math.uqam.ca (Guillaume Cartier)]

This relates to the MCL implementation of Adjustable Arrays.

Will the following create an horribly inneficient
and fragmented array?

(defvar foo
  (make-array 0 :adjustable t))

(dotimes (k 100)
  (adjust-array foo k))

Or does MCL (and in general most Common Lisp systems) expand
arrays by a minimum quantum so that it does not fragment so
badly in cases like above.

Thanks for any answers,
it will tell me how to use adjustable arrays.
