[Pharo-project] Experimental Cocoa OS-X based Squeak Cog JIT VM 5.8b4.
I've stuck a version (5.8b4) of the cocoa based os-x squeak cog JIT based VM in my experimental folder. http://homepage.mac.com/johnmci/.Public/experimental/Squeak%205.8b4.app.zip I spent the last two days becoming very familiar with Open/GL and rewrote the display logic to use Open/GL. I am still doing some further optimization, but people should test this version and let me know what they find. Other Fixes. I think the control-arrow keys should work now, someone test this and let me know. -- =========================================================================== John M.

Yes, it works! Thanks John.

What are the implications of these optimizations? By the sound of it they should influence the rendering. Is that correct? Are there any tests we could do to see the improvements?

Hmm, the control-arrow and control-shift-arrow keys do not work for me. Is there anything in particular I should do to get them working? Cheers, Doru

You can use the frame rate morphic to observe the rate rate you get in your application, compare to 4.x. Comparing to a 5.7 in 64bit mode may not be fair because with the same open/GL code it does a frame rate 25% better. I'm also interested in any drawing issues, yes it does lose it's mind when you resize the window (I might fix that someday), but I'm more concerned about drawing artifacts & visual differences between it now and 4.x -- =========================================================================== John M.
