Hello guys,<br>
<br>
i'd like to remind you that this stuff is not yet made own way to VM and images.<br>
<br>
Magma suffers badly from old finalization implementation, and as a<br>
consequence it losing in speed competition<br>
comparing to other OODBs.<br>
I'd really like to see this enhancement to be integrated to both<br>
Squeak VM and Cog VM.<br>
<br>
My quick analyzis shows that Squeak 4.2 image contains some things,<br>
which needed:<br>
<br>
"Weak reference finalization"<br>
newArray at: 56 put: (self at: #WeakFinalizer ifAbsent: []).<br>
<br>
while Pharo still not.<br>
<br>
I'd like to remind you that VM-side changes are really simple and<br>
backwards compatible (given the right size of special objects array).<br>
Once we will have new VMs, supporting this feature , we could start<br>
integrating the image-side part of it.<br>
<br>
Please, inform me, what i can do to help closing this issue.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>you can either send me a change set that is w.r.t. to a Cog version or save a Monticello version that is a delta from Cog. I also need image level test code to pound on this.</div>
