Reactive document checking in Coq

In an effort to improve the reactivity of Coq, the way it processes and checks a single document has been completely redesigned [7] . The current development version is able to reschedule the tasks to be performed in order to minimize the time required to give interactive feedback to the user. On typical documents taken from the formal proof of the Odd Order Theorem, the worst reaction time of the tool dropped from 5 minutes to 9 seconds. This improvement will be part of the next stable release of the Coq system.
