Is Gambit Scheme suitable for real time applications?

The answer is "it depends". What kind of real-time constraints do you have in your application? Moreover, what is the quantity of live data? Can you get by with statically allocated data structures or is all allocated dynamically?

Does it have a real time garbage collector?

Not the standard release, but I could dig up some old code that we did use for research if you want to experiment (http:// www.iro.umontreal.ca/~feeley/papers/ismm98.ps.gz).
