New Cog VMs available
... at http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r3386 CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.1370/r3386 Add the ARMv5/ARMv6 Cog Spur JIT VM! Add explicit read barriers to primitives which access an argument as the receiver (i.e. the mirror primitives). Don't check if the actual receiver is used. Simplify failure where appropriate cuz the primitives will be retried. Add -fwrapv to all linux gcc builds (to insist on 2's complement arithmetic) and add makeallclean, making makeall do the dirty build. Provide a -exitonwarn command line switch for the Mac and Unix VMs to allow for CI testing of asserts. Unix: restore the SCCS revision after the version number in -version output. Spur: Remember to count shrink requests Cogit: Fix bug in rewriting compiler primitives on module unload, etc. The old code didn't change the assignment to the primitiveFunctionPointer, which is needed for correct management of failing primitive calls on Spur. Simplify the post compile hook to eliminate the label parameter; this is local to the Cogit. ARM Cogit: Use out-of-line literals for compactness. -- best, Eliot

Thanks. This is a huge improvement compared to the stack vm. I've just tried it on my Raspberry pi, with this image http://files.pharo.org/image/50/latest-spur32.zip. arm cog on raspberry pi 2 model b: 1 tinyBenchmarks. -> '110726643 bytecodes/sec; 7349080 sends/sec' stackvm on raspberry pi 2 model b: 1 tinyBenchmarks. -> '15108593 bytecodes/sec; 865704 sends/sec' My app also runs noticeably faster. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/New-Cog-VMs-available-tp4833350p4833366.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
