Hi Andrew, The VM looks fine to me. More detail below.
Good. I'll email it to you.

Hi Bryce, I have built a Win32 vm. Firstly, I tried building from a Squeak3.8.1-6747-full image, but that gave
MNU
errors when generating :(. So then I tried again with Squeak3.8-6665-full, and this time it generated,
and
compiled ok.
4 tests are failing in the ExuperyStoryTests... #testBlockBug3
Relies on a test from the refactoring browser.
#testBlockNonLocalReturnsRecycleContexts
Another refactoring browser test is used here.
#testBlocksAndProcessesBug
This one uses CommandShell which is built on top of OSProcess.
#testDelayWaitStressTest
This test uses GraphViz which is used to lay out graphical inspectors for intermediate code. This is also why I've loaded OSProcess and CommandShell into my standard image.
I need to figure out a decent way of handling dependencies on other packages. Exupery itself should be dependency free, but the tests are not. I re-use tests from other packages if they catch a crash in Exupery. This can wait though.
The benchmarks are... arithmaticLoopBenchmark 2487 compiled 285 ratio: 8.726 bytecodeBenchmark 4271 compiled 1255 ratio: 3.403 sendBenchmark 3482 compiled 1772 ratio: 1.965 doLoopsBenchmark 2078 compiled 1663 ratio: 1.250 largeExplorers 2224 compiled 1683 ratio: 1.321 compilerBenchmark 2093 compiled 1712 ratio: 1.223 Cumulative Time 12903.774 compiled 4971.489 ratio 2.596
The numbers look very good to me. The micro benchmarks are worse than I get here and the macro benchmarks are much better.
Here's the benchmarks I get: arithmaticLoopBenchmark 1397 compiled 92 ratio: 15.185 bytecodeBenchmark 2135 compiled 463 ratio: 4.611 sendBenchmark 1576 compiled 699 ratio: 2.255 doLoopsBenchmark 1083 compiled 841 ratio: 1.288 largeExplorers 356 compiled 366 ratio: 0.973 compilerBenchmark 733 compiled 708 ratio: 1.035 Cumulative Time 4213.729 compiled 1453.554 ratio 2.899
I'm running an Athlon 64 3500+ 2.2GHz. What CPU did you use for those benchmarks?
Pentium 3 Mobile. 1133MHz. I need a new PC - then I'd get twice as much work done ;) Cheers, Andy
