</div>Fuel seems to work fine in Squeak (despite some issues in the tests), so<br>
I updated RemoteTask <<a href="http://wiki.squeak.org:8080/squeak/6176" target="_blank">http://wiki.squeak.org:8080/squeak/6176</a>> to use Fuel<br>
rather than ReferenceStream for returning the results of a remote task to<br>
the supervisor image. If Fuel is not present in the image, ReferenceStream<br>
will be used by default. This update is included in the latest CommandShell<br>
on SqueakSource.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Excellent. I am glad to hear that. Let us know if there are problems. <br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
Fuel provides provides a noticable performance improvement when returning<br>
a large result data set, and also avoids a problem in serializing large<br>
integers <<a href="http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7679" target="_blank">http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7679</a>> .<br></blockquote><div><br>Thanks. Indeed, the performance is one of the most important characteristic of Fuel.<br>

Pharo users should beware of this bug when running the RemoteTask examples<br>
<<a href="https://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4997" target="_blank">https://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4997</a>>, because the<br>
examples perform prime number searches in the remote tasks.<br></blockquote><div><br>Ok, it seems the issue is being discussed. <br><br>Cheers<br><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
