discussion. I'm happy to hear that. I think being conservative like the N
interpreters model is a good desicion at this, not so mature in multicore-stage.
It buys time for more long run ones.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT><BR>I think that many other people would
be interested in this. I suggest making stage 3 here a separate project in
its own right. If it is stable and works well, I could see it becoming the
official Squeak VM. Also keep integration with Exupery in mind. <BR><BR>I
also recommend starting this project by changing the behaviour of
ProcessorScheduler to behave in the same way as the multi-threaded VM.
Currently code can assume that a lower priority process won't run while a
higher priority process is busy; this assumption would no longer exist in
the multi-threaded VM. This would be a reasonably simple change and I
believe this may pick up several concurrency issues in the image.
