In VW and in Squeak there's no PIC and the corresponding thing which
contributes to performance I called "methodCache" (still in the context of
comparision).
I also believe (without having searched for it) that, when the PIC is
exhausted (or not in use at bytecode time) the comparision
(Squeak/VM/Strongtalk) reflects the "methodCache" thing performance.
