Other thing to check, which VM version are you using? Because Squeak.org
didn't link to SqueakVM.org I was under the false impression that 3.7.7
was the latest VM. It only gets about 60m sends/sec on 1.2ghz dual
athlon/gcc4.1. The 3.9 VM gets 120m sends/sec on same machine/compiler.

3.7 or 3.8 with gcc 3.3.6 used to get 126m sends/sec...
