VM here: http://bintray.com/estebanlm/pharo-vm/build#files/

What is the difference between the various x86_64 versions? I chose the itimer one for my tests. The threaded one is the "run external calls in their own thread" vm?

No. The "threaded" one uses a separate thread for generating the heartbeat. The timer one uses a signal-based interval timer. You want the threaded one. The signal-based implementation causes havoc with external code.

^ this.

but the threaded one requires a config on linux.

(executing it by command line will point you to the correct NOTE, just s/squeak/pharo :) )

Thanks,
