I have released a new version of the Pharo VM for Pharo 9, Pharo 10 and Pharo 11. This VM is accessible right now from Zero-Conf, updating it in the Pharo Launcher or using the usual downloads (as described in
pharo.org/download).
This version includes a series of bug fixes and upgrades on the third-party libraries.
Changelog:
- Implementing High resolution clock for ARM64 (Used during profiling)
- Updating third party libraries for all the graphic layer.
- Fixing a performance regression on the allocation of opcodes and fix-ups.
Cleaning only the ones that are going to be used.
Like this, this version has the same speed than before when allocating in the stack.
- Correctly handling the encoding of the command line arguments of the VM (Windows)
- Allocating the opcodes and fixup structs only once and reusing them (Reducing risk of C Stack Overflow)
Thanks a lot, and any doubt please let me know.
Cheers,
Pablo on behalf of the whole Pharo team.
