VM/Settings for Deploy

by Sven Van Caekenberghe

Hi, I am very happy that I managed to create a very small deploy image based on Pharo-1.1-11400-rc2. This image contains all of Seaside and Glorp/PostgreSQL and is still only about 12Mb. All this thanks to ScriptLoader's #cleanUpForProduction. Thanks a lot to all who made this possible. I noticed however that this image is handling my HTTP/Seaside benchmark consistenly faster on my Mac, about 80 to 85 req/s (Mac OS X 10.6.4, 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM) than on my server (RHEL 4 (update 7), 2 Ghz AMD Opteron 175 Dual Core with 4GB RAM), about 55 to 65 req/s. On my Mac I use the Squeak 4.2.4beta1U VM, on my server the Squeak-4.0.3.2202 Unix VM. Next I tried the Squeak-4.0.3.2202 VM on my Mac. This resulted in about 60 to 70 req/s. Is it normal that the Unix VM is slower than the Mac VM ? Shouldn't a Linux server box be faster at networking/IO/CPU than a MacBook Pro running the full Mac OS X GUI ? Is there anything simple (low hanging fruit kind of stuff) that I can do to improve performance, either using command line options to the VM or using settings at the image level ? I currently run the VM with: Squeak-4.0.3.2202-linux_i386/bin/squeak -vm-display-null -vm-sound-null deploy.image What are others using in the Seaside deploy area ? Thanks, Sven

Pharocasts: How to contribute updated + WorldMenu

by laurent laffont

Hi, Learn how to: - choose an issue to fix from the Pharo issue tracking - create and send a slice with your fix - add entries into the World Menu Code must be sent as a SLICE named SLICE-Issue-xxxx-description. Patrick Barroca and StÃ©phane Ducasse have added a +Slice button in Pharo 1.1 to ensure this convention. For more informations on the contribution process, read "How to contribute" on Pharo wiki. Here I show how issue #2582 (Rearrange WorldMenu) has been fixed, based on WorldMenu registration chapter in the Pharo CollaborActive book. Screecast here: http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-to-contribute-to-pharo.html <http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-to-contribute-to-pharo.html> Cheers, Laurent Laffont http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/ http://magaloma.blogspot.com/

Re: [Pharo-users] Error:invalid utf8 input detected.

Hi Stef. I would have thought the VM initialize processing could be changed to avoid this problem, but I don't know the details :) If the problem cannot be fixed, or if it will take time, it would be good to have the work-around described in the "*Pharo By Example*" book. That is, to comment out or delete the line "ImageFile=Contents\Resources\Pharo-1.0.image" in Pharo.ini. Without this fix, a new Smalltalker will hit the error as soon as they try to use the PBE.image file. Image file management is one of those things that I like to get a clear understanding of at an early stage when learning a new dev environment. --Thomas Costick _____________________ http://twitter.com/3dbloke http://blog.3dbloke.com On 22 June 2010 17:47, StÃ©phane Ducasse [via Smalltalk] < ml-node+2264434-1701963449-299646(a)n4.nabble.com<ml-node%2B2264434-1701963449-299646(a)n4.nabble.com> > wrote: > thanks thomas. > This problem was reported on the squeak-vm mailing-list and there is not > much we can do. > May be I'm wrong. > > Stef > > On Jun 22, 2010, at 6:38 PM, tgc05 wrote: > > > > > Hi.

Instead, it just unifies APIs and then delegate (talks) to the particular database client library. This means that when you want to use OpenDBX with a particular database you need the OpenDBX library AND the database client library. This is explained here: http://www.squeakdbx.org/Compiling%20and%20installing%20OpenDBX Where do you have installed PostgreSQL? in your own machine? Be sure you have /bin in the $PATH. For example if you installed postgres in C:\PostgreSQL\8.3\ then you should add to PATH: C:\PostgreSQL\8.3\bin\ you will see libpq.dll is there, the problem is windows cannot find it. > Do I have to download all of them to run the tests? > Dlls ? No, you just need libopendbx dll and the dll of your backend. In you case, libpgsqlbackend. > Which leads to the next question... how are the tests supposed to run? Sorry. This is kind of hack/lazyness/lack of time. It is explained here: http://www.squeakdbx.org/GLORP%20integration (subtitle unit tests) In SqueakDBX I fixed this using a TestResource and brining a popup that let you choose which database you want to test. But I didn't have time to do it in GlorpDBX :( > Do > they need a MySQL/SQLite/PgSQL database server configured? > I don't know what configured means. What I can tell you is that for running the tests, you DO need a database running. And you have to tell Glorp which username/pass to use.

I never tried it with GlorpDBX :( SqueakDBX is working for sure with sqlite, but I have no idea about GlorpDBX. We test it (for the moment) with Postgres, mysql and oracle.

Re: [Pharo-users] Installing GlorpDBX on Pharo 1.1

by Esteban A. Maringolo

Don't ask me how, but I managed to install SqueakDBX and GlorpDBX on Pharo 1.1 :) What I wonder now is how to run the tests, because I downloaded the DLLs from OpenDBX website, put them on the VM directory, but if I try to run the tests most of them complains about the missing DLL, for example LIBPQ.DLL. Do I have to download all of them to run the tests? Which leads to the next question... how are the tests supposed to run? Do they need a MySQL/SQLite/PgSQL database server configured? By now I just want to use GlorpDBX with SQLite3 as its backend. There is a bunch of libXXXXXbackend-1.dll files with the OpenDBX binaries, but I don't think it's what I need. Thank you very much. ps: I'll try to find the missing DLL's and place them on the VM directory, and log it back here if it works. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Installing-GlorpDBX-on-Pharo-1-1-tp2263345p2263423.ht… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
