[Pharo-project] stress tester with Pharo

Hi, is it possible to create jMeter-like tests with Pharo (and Cog ?) - running a massive number of (native ?) threads that send HTTP requests ? Laurent

[Pharo-project] Cog VM continuous integration: update
by Igor Stasenko July 1, 2011

July 1, 2011

Hello, all. Last few weeks i concentrated my efforts to make Windows slave working and merge the updates made by Eliot and synchronize source with svn. It took quite a bit time to set up windows slaves (multiple people were involved). I don't want to go into details, but there was some technical issues, as well as complications with connecting windows with non-windows, firewalls etc etc. At least now it is working and we can build windows VMs. A merge also costed me quite of a time, since Andreas reorganized sources and merged cross and win32 plugin codebase with squeak branch using of svn:externals. And while i, no doubt, welcome the merge, i had to spend time learning how i could mirror that on git. The only thing which i can say after this: git is superior tool. Its a pity that i had to waste my time fighting with svn, while its only a question of couple of minutes for developer(s) to clone sources from git and start using it instead of svn. So, after couple of hiccups and show-stoppers now everything more-or less run smoothly on Hudson, (except from stack vm on win32). Here the list of builds which currently available for download. Mac: Cog/Mac Carbon https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/view/Cog/job/Cog%20Mac%20Carbon/ Stack VM/ Mac Carbon https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/view/Cog/job/StackVM%20Mac%20Carbon/ Linux: Cog https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/view/Cog/job/Cog%20Unix/ Stack VM/ Unix https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/view/Cog/job/Stack%20VM%20Unix/ A new kid on the block Windows: Cog/Win32 https://pharo-ic.lille.inria.fr/hudson/view/Cog/job/CogWin32/ (the Stack VM has linking problems which is yet to be solved, see my post on vm-dev list) To download VM just follow one of the links and then pick the .zip with VM. As for Mac Cocoa VMs: they are broken for now, because yet unmerged. Hopefully Esteban will find time to update his branch soon. The next step is to run tests for built VMs. For this i planning to create a specialized package, which will contain code snippets for loading & firing off various tests, because currently all tests are a bunch of .st scripts, and managing files over dozen of networked machines is not fun. So, i think i will just take these snippets and put them into single MC package, so then it could be managed much easier. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

Re: [Pharo-project] [Pharo-users] **Important Please read** Towards First Class Tasks
by Tudor Girba July 1, 2011

July 1, 2011

Hi, The idea of Pharo Tasks is not to get things rigid and to stop the individuals from contributing. This should continue to happen. Instead, the idea is to start acknowledging that Pharo has became larger, and that the integration and drive of individual contributions has more dimensions that can be handled by the core group alone. So, the Pharo Task Force is a mechanism for teams to form around some larger topics. Like I said beforetime, I want to work on the IDE. This is a topic that is larger than one person can and should do. But, it is also a topic that requires integration of contributions, and it won't work by simply doing a union of choices. Just like now the Core team relentlessly cleans up the language and infrastructure, so should the IDE deserve a similar approach to get it strong and reinvented. People should know that this project exists and that they can contribute in a more organized way. This won't work by force. But, if someone wants to build/lead/integrate a project like this, I think it can work nicely.

What this VM has (as it merges all changes of Igor) is support for Ephemerons. The ephemerons-imageside.3.cs from http://code.google.com/p/cog/issues/detail?id=44 has the image side.

[Pharo-project] 1.3 profiler - nice stuff!
by Schwab,Wilhelm K July 1, 2011

July 1, 2011

Recent mention of the profiler prodded me to take a look at the profiler in 1.3. Very nice! Some "quick" changes that I think would be good: (1) Shout in the code pane; (2) Use tabs to show the gc data or the code; (3) Add a tab to show the result rather than using a modal notifier (which probably quickly gets dismissed, and then missed<g>). A non-quick change, if it's even possible... Some of the slickest Dolphin goodies in existence include: Ian Bartholomew's ChunkBrowser (Pharo's lost changes is close and useful, but not the same) and Profiler, the SUnitBrowser (nicer than the SUnit test runner), and Ghoul. Ghoul is well named. It presents Dolphin crash dumps in a debugger-like view: http://metagnostic.org/DolphinSmalltalk/Ghoul.html If there is, or could/should be enough data in a profile to do the same thing, it would make an interesting addition. Then interacting with the code includes the ability to see the values of variables. Bill
