I imagine that Seaside will not use it either. Well, we are about to use it for Seaside. It scales a lot better than Kom. Cog can't really speed up Kom (based on our benchmarks done with JMeter)*, probably because of the heavy use of notifications (DynamicBindings), but it can boost WebClient significantly. Levente *The benchmark is done with 50 concurrent "users", clicking the counter example as fast as they can: Label Throughput (kB/s) Average response time (ms) Squeak-Kom 69.53 690 Squeak-WebClient 105.46 447 Cog-Squeak-Kom 74.54 617 Cog-Squeak-WebClient 226.80 193 I didn't include the Pharo results, because when we did the benchmark, there was no Cog support for Pharo.

WebClient is a perfectly good external package and for the time being I prefer it should stay that way.

[Pharo-project] squeaksource no license is dangerous

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

hi guys after get burned during some years about the license of Squeak. What do you think to force people to put a license on projects on squeaksource? I have the impression that it would avoid bad situation in the future. Even if I could live with it like it is too. This is just that we just wait to get bitten... Stef

Did I say "pharo library"? reread carefully I said an "open-source one". This is not our own library, this is a library we can contribute, control.... We do not want to be in the situation that somebody can change the license under our feet. We want a library where people can participate. Now Pharoers will decide, I think that we do not have problem with sharing on WebClient. I can understand that people do not like that they cannot improve an infrastructure that they will rely upon. We do not want string to number conversion, and rely on squeakToUtf. Now I was not even aware of the ConfigurationOfWebClient. There is none in the squeaksource repository. So how can we guess? I'm not reading squeak-dev and no idea that there is even somebody using metacello. > What's wrong with one that could be shared by all Squeak forks? We do not have problem with sharing. You can take anything you like from Pharo. Seaside, Magritte, Pier, RB,.... are all MIT OB is MIT and lukas pushed it a lot recently for everybody. Moose is BSD, MIT, Glamour, Mondrian MIT ... and I'm sure that they are more. :) they are all external projects. We discussed on the mailing-list what to do and people thought that it would be good to get in included it. Probably we missed the point that we just need SocketStream to load the rest. I'm dull but learning everyday. For me I just cannot stand HTTPSocket and the network package so anything is better. But may be it was a mistake. Note that I hope that squeakers will not bash us as the guys that want to play it alone because this is not the case, but people can bash us if this helps them to feel good. Pharo is there for that too ;D. WebClient was the perfect case for sharing but Andreas decided differently. Now - since the license is unclear - since the license of the contributors is unclear we will not use it as an infrastructural assets for Pharo. I imagine that Seaside will not use it either.
