[Pharo-project] [ANN] Fuel release version 1.7
Hi folks! We have released the new version 1.7 of Fuel, a binary serialization framework for Pharo that provides extremely fast deserialization. More information on our home page<http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/software/Fuel>. Again, I thank ESUG for sponsoring me through the SummerTalk<http://www.esug.org/wiki/pier/Promotion/SummerTalk/SummerTalk2011> program. You can download this version in Pharo 1.2.1 or 1.3 with: Gofer new squeaksource: 'Fuel'; package: 'ConfigurationOfFuel'; load. ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfFuel) project version: '1.7') load. The list of changes includes performance optimizations, design clean-ups, and new features. - The FLSerializer and FLMaterializer API has changed. They are no longer implementing the algorithms but are a kind of Façade. - Developer guides with examples: Getting Started<http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/software/Fuel/Version1.7/StreamsGuide>and Customizing the graph<http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/software/Fuel/Version1.7/Hooks> . - Serialization substitutions: "Store this object instead of me." - Global sends: "Restore me by sending this selector to this global" - Versioning the stream: We prefix the stream with a version number that should match when loading. - Performance optimizations on instances of: -- Word-like classes. (We thank a lot to Henrik Sperre Johansen for your help!) -- ByteString and Symbol. -- Date, Time, Duration and DateAndTime. -- Point and Rectangle. -- MethodDictionary. Now materialization is 2000x faster, thanks to its new rehash without become. - Huge clean-up in Tests package. Cheers! MartÃn Dias

Cheers! MartÃn Dias Grats! Any blog posts with benchmarks comparing different Fuel versions?
Cheers, Henry

Here you have 2 charts. You help can be seen in Widestring for example. Now dates are a little bit slower to materialize but the serialization is much faster. If you have ideas to speed up Date materialization ;) FLDateCluster. Cheers -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
