This knowledge base simply fires "init rule" 30000 in 23 seconds. This calculates to: 78260 rule firings per minute. If you haven't talked to Tamara Huebschman, call her and she will be happy to send you out an evaluation copy of KES 3.0. Thanks, Alan attributes: f:int. y:int [default: 30000]. % rules: init rule: if true then reassert f=1. endif. % actions: while y # 0 do obtain f. erase f. reassert y= y-1. endwhile. %
