I think that this is great. We need to optimize as much as it makes sense without breaking our nice apis. Stef On Mar 13, 2010, at 1:23 AM, Levente Uzonyi wrote:

Hi guys
tristan is a new student here and he would like to work on collection optimization and implementation. I would like the get some ideas from you. - are there some collections that would be cool to improve?
Here's the list I plan to improve is Squeak: - OrderedCollection: fix the growing behavior, adding n elements takes O(n^2) time in some cases - SortedCollection: just deprecate it (or replace it's crappy quicksort implementation if you really want to improve it. But I think it's useless) - TextStream: adding n characters with different attributes has O(n^2) runtime - StandardFileStream >> #upTo: (the recursive call + concatenation requires O(n^2) runtime and O(n^2) memory for large chunks of data)

- are there some collections that would be cool to have and that we do not have yet? If you have any idea related to optimizations let me know.
