Speed, Mac and VM

Mon Dec 2 09:15:03 UTC 2002

On MacOsX, VM Squeak 3.4.0Beta2 (carbon)  slightly more rapid than 
CocoaSqueak but for a class than I have written which use essentially  
FTPsocket, in contrast Cocoa execute the methods with a speed six fold 
greater. Furthermore, this speed is the same that tan observed with on 
a  PC (Squeak-GL VM). Thus carbon squeak is very slow with ftp 
primitives.
The execution of the primitives could be so different from a VM to 
another ?
