Objective Smalltalk

by askoh

"Objective-Smalltalk is a re-imagining of Objective-C for the 21st century. Like Objective-C, it blends features from Smalltalk and C, but instead of adding some Smalltalk features to C, it adds ideas from Objective-C to Smalltalk. It is intended as a full-stack language capable of complementing or replacing Objective-C for iOS and Mac OS X programming as well as replacing most scripting language use in those environments. It is not Smalltalk-80 compatible." http://objective.st/ Has anyone seen this? When will it be ready to use? Thanks, Aik-Siong Koh -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Objective-Smalltalk-tp4730424.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Tell me about your workflow

by GOUBIER Thierry

I'm happy with your test drive :) I see that with your largest test, you are at ~6000ms for writing overall in the profiler (basicStoreVersion). Can you drill down a bit in it to reach places where it says FileReference>>writeStream (or something similar); this is the place where the effective writing takes place.

Performance improvements... I'm wondering. From the profiling data I have, if I make writing 4x faster, I will only make a save 1.04x faster (with gitfiletree and Roassal). If to write less I have to compute a lot, do file reads and compares, md5 hashes, a diff... I'll probably replace a lot of writes by a lot of CPU time in Pharo and maybe be slower overall (not to mention more error prone). Would you be ready to run some profiling code on your set ? I can make a simple test case. I also wonder if writing less could make the git commit faster, in which case it could be valuable. sure, send me the instructions Also, if you want to try gitfiletree and your repository, what you can try is just browse your repository and browse versions of your packages (browse, not load: a browse will load your package code components but not compile the code). ok, how should I install it? (I noticed that the use of git archive makes gitfiletree slower at package read time, but, since this is dwarfed by the Pharo compilation time when loading such large packages, I don't care :)).

Git is slow: on Roassal, Waiting for the git commit : 67% Writing the package to disk : 20% (writing the version file: 0.4%) -> No real cost associated with the metadata -> git is a lot more than I expected. When I remove git (i.e. pure filetree) Making a snapshot of Roassal: 28.9% basic Store version : 67% writeBasicDefinitions : 30% (of which half of it is reordering some stuff, not writing) writeMethodHolderDefinitions: 27,8% Of which writing to disk effectively is 19.7% Conclusion: gitfiletree will look slow because git is slow on such large commits :( And I don't see much gains to be made on the writing (i.e. a format change won't help much), but a lot to loose (code complexity, bugs).

Okay, I'm impressed :D filetree performs quite better and gitfiletree in 3.0 really feels great my incentive to upgrade went up a lot On Dec 14, 2013, at 1:35 PM, GOUBIER Thierry <thierry.goubier(a)cea.fr> wrote: > To install gitfiletree in 3.0: > > Install OSProcess from the configuration browser or 'do it' the following in a workspace > > Gofer new > url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/Pharo/MetaRepoForPharo30/main/'; > package: 'ConfigurationOfOSProcess'; > load. > ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfOSProcess) project version: #stable) load > > Gofer new > url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/ThierryGoubier/Alt30/main'; > package: 'MonticelloFileTree-Git'; > load > > Then, in your Monticello browser, add repositories of type gitfiletree: in exactly the same way you would use filetree:.
