Hi Isaac,

    the HPI folks and Stefan Marr have made a good collection of Smalltalk
benchmarks which include the benchmarks game benchmarks.  You can find them
here, and I believe VisualWorks comes with adaptors for Monticello
repositories.

MCHttpRepository
location: '
http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/hirschfeld/squeaksource/BenchmarkRunner'

As you know I'd love to be able to compare VisualWorks against Squeak and
Pharo on Cog Spur.  I believe Spur is significantly faster than VisualWorks
at this point, and Scorch/Sista is set to push things further.  I hope
Smalltalk performance will be represented by the best of breed, and not
limited to slower implementations.  At ;east I'd like to be able to check
my assumption of Spur's performance vs VisualWorks.

cheers!
