Can I disassemble my code in PLTScheme?

Can I see the translated machine instruction of a scheme function like (disassemble) in LISP?

There is a decompile module providing a function by the same name. It can be used to decompile a bytecode file into a kind of a human-readable form. However, this is not a linear assembly-language representation (that is what gets generated dynamically by the JIT), and it's questionable whether it will help you to look at the results. In any case, search the documentation for more information.

You can also use the macro stepper to get a rough idea of the kind of complexity that MzScheme actually sees -- just click it, disable all macro hiding, and step through your code until it's completely expanded. It will be hairy.
