[Ann] Lifeware, Schmidt Pro contracts for the consortium

by ducasse

The Pharo consortium is very excited and super happy to bring your attention to the following announce that was presented during Pharodays 2019: https://fr.slideshare.net/pharoproject/ <https://fr.slideshare.net/pharoproject/> The consortium got two contracts to support financially one year of engineer to improve Pharo. The companies Lifeware and Schmidt Pro fund work on Pharo to improve Pharo. The total amount of the two contracts is around 190 K Euros. In addition the RMOD team got some resources from Inria. The net result is that in 2019 the consortium will have 3.5 engineers working full time on Pharo. - Esteban Lorenzano - Pablo Tesone - Cyril Ferlicot - Guillermo Polito It will boost Pharo. Note that the issues raised by Schmidt Pro and Lifeware and their impacts on the roadmap of Pharo 8 and Pharo 9 are presented in https://fr.slideshare.net/pharoproject/ <https://fr.slideshare.net/pharoproject/>. What is key to notice is that the consortium is working because many contributing companies are sharing ressources. This is built a strong soil to grow Pharo and business around. On the behalf of Inria, the consortium and the community we would like to thank Lifeware and SchmidtPro for their strong support. Stef on the behalf of the Pharo consortium

I posted this in pharo-users as I it wasn't Pharo development question. I probably should have posted here or emailed you directly. All I really need is good performance with a simple array of floats. No matrix math. Nothing complicated. Moving Averages over a slice of the array. A variety of different averages, weighted, etc. Max/min of the array. But just a single simple array. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.

However the only part of Smallapack I am trying to use at the moment is something that would be 64bit and compare to FloatArray so that I can do some simple accessing, slicing, sum, and average on the array. Here is some sample code I wrote just to play in a playground. I have an ExternalDoubleArray, LapackDGEMatrix, and a FloatArray samples. The ones not in use are commented out for any run. fp is a download from http://ratedata.gaincapital.com/2018/12%20December/EUR_USD_Week1.zip and unzipped to a directory. fp := '/home/jimmie/data/EUR_USD_Week1.csv' index := 0. pricesSum := 0. asum := 0. ttr := [ lines := fp asFileReference contents lines allButFirst. a := ExternalDoubleArray new: lines size.

But it is over 18x faster. I am afraid I must be doing something badly wrong. Python/Numpy is over 4x faster than FloatArray for the above. If I am using Smallapack incorrectly please help. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.
