[Vm-dev] unused-method removal vs. Spur compaction

[Craig Latta]

Hi--

     I've got the mass unused-method removal from Spoon working in Spur
in Squeak 5.1. But now I have a juicy 12-megabyte chunk of free space in
the middle of the 35-megabyte image that won't go away. There's just one
Spur segment (I was expecting several?), with no pinned objects.

     Is there a known Squeak image with multiple segments? Is there some
way to split a segment? Am I just supposed to play with the grow
overhead and shrink threshold in the VM simulator, until the compaction
I want is triggered?


     thanks!
