[Pharo-project] Performance in Workspace
I have installed setup_pharo1.0-10466-BETAdev09.10.1.exe on Windows XP with a 1.6GHz processor. Evaluating "3 + 4" or "Time now" takes about 1 sec or more to print the result. Is this expected for this beta version? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Performance-in-Workspace-tp3772302p3772302.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Takes no time on my computer. Could you please print the result of this expression: [Time now] timeToRun -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Lambdas are relegated to relative obscurity until Java makes them popular by not having them." James Iry
I obtained the following results: "[3 + 4] timeToRun 0" and "[Time now ] timeToRun 0", however it still took about a second before each result was displayed (the hour glass icon flashed on briefly for each evaluation). In reply to the OP I am running the release version of Microsoft Security Essentials. Damien Cassou wrote:

Have you any antivirus software running? There's some issues with NOD32 (and any other that I can't remember now) scanning all the time the changes file and making Pharo/Squeak unusable. If it's the problem exclude the Pharo directory from the scan list. On Mon, Oct 5, 2009 at 8:43 PM, Robert Kovacic <rjk@bigpond.net.au> wrote:

I am running Microsoft Security Essentials and excluding the Pharo directory from the scan list as you suggested has solved the problem thank you. Gabriel Cotelli wrote:

I forgot to ask - should I report this to the Bug List? Robert Kovacic wrote:

Seems like an issue more suited in a FAQ or something to me, not much we can really do do "fix" it... Maybe http://scg.unibe.ch/wiki/faq/pharo deserves an entry about this? Cheers, Henry

Could somebody that knows the issue a bit better than me write the FAQ entry? I'll add it to either of the two FAQs then. Reporting an issue makes only sense if you do it over at MS... ;) Cheers, Adrian On Oct 6, 2009, at 09:20 , Henrik Johansen wrote:

Given Microsoft Security Essentials is free, it's reasonable to assume that over time a significant percentage of Windows machines will have it installed. It would be a shame if people new to or evaluating Pharo were turned off by a known issue that so severely affects performance but has such a simple solution. I would go so far as to suggest that a message be displayed in the Workspace of the fresh downloaded image for this (and any other similar issues). Regards, Robert Kovacic Henrik Johansen wrote:

well we are not all on windows :) so an FAQ entry is the most appropriate action. stef On Oct 6, 2009, at 9:57 AM, Robert Kovacic wrote:
