I don't know how long will it take to revamp Morphic, last time I saw
a demo of it at Smalltalks conference (~circa 2007/8), it was really
promising, but didn't hear about it again.

Yes. Reading what Juan Vuletich is working on for the next Morphic there is
a lot said about things I imagine would negatively impact performance if a
lot of deliberate effort isn't made to offset them.

I couldn't tell exactly, I haven't used Cuis in the last year or so,
but at that time (Pharo 2 was new) it was the faster of the three
brothers (Pharo/Squeak/Cuis).

Maybe that changed lately and Cuis got slower too. Apparently it is
very easy to bloat Morphic.

You get a Cuis image and it's super fast.
          

What machine are you running on? I just gave the 2009 image of Cuis a
try on
my current-model Mac Pro (3.6 GHz, 6 cores, tons of RAM) and honestly
just
dragging a window around was terribly slow. Just guessing, I'd say 10
FPS or
less which probably half what I see with Pharo.

Is the VM a factor? Should I try a different one?

Thanks.
