OMG, this thing is for real: A Pharo image using 20 GB virtual memory, about 6/7 GB for real on macOS Sierra, after playing around a bit allocating massive amounts of memory. Pharo in the above screenshot holds two 2 basic inspectors open on two different 1 GB byte arrays, after GC consuming about 2.2 GB. This is a game changer. Yeah ! 2 ** 30 timesRepeat: [ Transcript crShow: 'Thank you !' ].

this is still not official (thatâs why is not in official place) so there are a couple of known problems:
- version format is different, and that breaks some things in image that depends on it to know what happens - command line is different and probably youâll need to play a bit with options (one or two dashes). - UFFI has some failing tests (but most of it works).
I would appreciate some help to report and/or fix the emerging problems.
cheers, Esteban
