On http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/NewBlockClosureVersion you can find a prebuilt version of the VM linux-x86 version.
It is really impressive the speed-up with this version.
Without BlockClosure support '0 tinyBenchmarks' result was about (after 5 runs) :
'28021015 bytecodes/sec; 1273205 sends/sec'
Using the VM with block closure it is about :
'38976857 bytecodes/sec; 2044447 sends/sec'
For that I use a compaq pressario laptop (700Mhz, 128 Mo, linux kernel 2.4.3).
Regards,
Alexandre
