Sorry, correct me if I'm wrong, but Pharo don't have its own Win VM right? Then if Pharo relies on the Squeak Windows VM I think that a good policy is use the latest. Just my opinion. Cheers. Germán. 2010/3/28 Mariano Martinez Peck <marianopeck@gmail.com>:
Hi. I have just tested the Windows VM availables and tested the 1 tinyBenchmarks and running all tests of PharoDev RC3.
I tested with this Windows VMs:
1) The one that it is in pharo website (PharoVM-Win32-3.11.8): 2) The other one from pharo website (exupery-vm-0.15-win32): 3) THe new one that Andreas released today (SqueakVM-Win32-4.0.1-bin)
1) vm\SqueakVM-Win32-4.0.1-bin\
 has freetype
1 tinyBenchmarks  '404104183 bytecodes/sec; 11914092 sends/sec'  '363120567 bytecodes/sec; 10946039 sends/sec'  '390839694 bytecodes/sec; 12597221 sends/sec'  '346179851 bytecodes/sec; 9996295 sends/sec'
1 gofer test fails
2)Â exupery-vm-0.15-win32
doesnt have freetype. Unacceptable for Pharo.
1 tinyBenchmarks  '365714285 bytecodes/sec; 9935342 sends/sec'  '365975696 bytecodes/sec; 10435290 sends/sec'  '349011588 bytecodes/sec; 16777208 sends/sec'  '339973439 bytecodes/sec; 11292844 sends/sec'
Two RB test with errors
3) Â SqueakVM-Win32-4.0.1-bin
has freetype
1 tinyBenchmarks  '353835521 bytecodes/sec; 11294326 sends/sec'  '415922014 bytecodes/sec; 12319712 sends/sec'  '369675090 bytecodes/sec; 11149338 sends/sec'  '373177842 bytecodes/sec; 9858402 sends/sec'
all tests geen
We suggestion is to remove the Exupery Vm from the pharo website. The new version 4.1 doesn't seem to be improvements in speed and from what I read about Andreas comment, it only fixes problems for SqueakMap, which was removed in Pharo, and a change in the close event of the windows. I would only let for download the PharoVM-Win32-3.11.8
Cheers
Mariano
