I've stuck a version (5.8b3) of the cocoa based os-x squeak cog JIT based VM in my experimental folder.

This VM is built from the Cog sources (with some minor changes for the iPhone) & revised & fixed Socket Plugin. It currently does NOT contain any external plugins. I did check in the changes to squeakvm.org that are required to build this VM excluding the required Cog changes...
People are invited to take it for a whirl, report any performance gains, issues and especially crashes.
I did a short test with Seaside. It did not crash and all tests are green. Rendering is about two to three times faster which seems to be in line with the performance gains other people report for other applications. Cheers Philippe
