BTW, I think I left out an important implementation detail.

To implement Levin Search using ocs, I had to hack the ocs interpreter
so it counted Scheme Execution Cycles.

Kind of like a cheap runtime profiling. Could I use a cpu timer
instead? Yes, certainly, but I did that.

At any rate, I need to be able to terminate the execution of the
interpreter when a specific time limit is reached. In ocs, I threw an
exception when a cycle limit was reached. How should I do that when
using meta ocaml and what would give me the least overhead? Should I
use a timer interrupt? Would it work out at a nanosecond level?

Please excuse my ignorance. I've had a lot of trouble working on
absolutely obsolete C++ code for some not-so-useful research projects,
so I couldn't have much time to work on ocaml, I think I've forgotten
much :(

Best,
