April 5, 2011

      VariableNode initialize.
Compiler recompileAll.

[
TestCase allSubclasses do: [ :cls|
        cls isAbstract
                ifFalse: [cls suite run]].
] timeToRun

(ParseNode classVarNamed:  'StdSelectors') removeKey: #class ifAbsent: [].
Compiler recompileAll.

[
TestCase allSubclasses do: [ :cls|
        cls isAbstract
                ifFalse: [cls suite run]].
] timeToRun

the deviation is too big to see if its really so big overhead.

if you compare worst , you got  187/178 ~ 5%
and if you compare the best you got
184/183  ~ 0.5%
