OK, I've tried the Smalltalk one...

With rev 2151 gnuification (awk) is done as I have��gnu-interp.c and��gnu-interp.c.log in my build directory.

Benchmark gives me:

Squeak VM 3.11.3 -r 2151 + FT2Plugin + Gnuification

==========================================

312385600 bytecodes/sec; 7320778 sends/sec

310868245 bytecodes/sec; 8271046 sends/sec

310679611 bytecodes/sec; 8271046 sends/sec

310868245 bytecodes/sec; 7232576 sends/sec

310491206 bytecodes/sec; 8271046 sends/sec

compared to

��Squeak VM 3.11.3 -r 2135 + FT2Plugin

==========================================

334421946 bytecodes/sec; 8026581 sends/sec

334640522 bytecodes/sec; 7449884 sends/sec

334421946 bytecodes/sec; 7449884 sends/sec

334421946 bytecodes/sec; 7675486 sends/sec

327156549 bytecodes/sec; 7598782 sends/sec

so it seems that on my machine rev 2135 without gnuification is a little better. I have GCC 4.4.3, ��Linux 32bits.

I don't understand....it is slower with the gnuification ?

weird....

I've tried gnuification on rev 2151. cmake/configure OK. But while building:

erreur: #error GNUIFICATION FAILED ( 0 )

Which gnuification method did you try?
There are two different versions. The origial version is an awk script which is run when you're building the vm with make. This is executed by default if you have awk installed.
There's another version written in smalltalk (linked by Mariano into this thread) which is not used by VMMAker at the moment, you probably don't need that. If you applied the latter one, you have to make sure that the first one is not executed. You can't gnuifying the sources twice.
Since both do the same, the best you can do now is to ignore the smalltalk version. If VMMaker will adopt Gnuifier.st we can remove the awk dependency from the build process, until then you shouldn't apply it if your platform has awk installed.

Does it mean latest SVN source is already "Gnuified" ? ��With latest rev.
I

have a little drop in benchmarks. However I'd rather put a stable

release

for Pharo 1.0 than latest trunk. What do you think ?

The so-called "gnuification" is a transformation of the interp.c file. So
this is done after generating the sources with VMMaker. The cmake
configuration that comes with revision 2135 does not have this step enabled,
and the more recent version that I used, revision 2151, has it. The magic is
in the awk script in unix/cmake/gnuify.awk which produes gnu-interp.c.

OK thanks. I will take a look.
