Smalltalk macroBenchmarks

A quick check showed the squeak image at
http://ftp.squeak.org/3.4/

contained the code, and it was deleted in later versions, not sure  
when, but someone could look.


I note standardTime:
has to be changed

the
	tieDown _ ByteArray new: spaceLeft - 1e7.  "Leave exactly 10MB free"

should be removed, it's intent was to pre-allocate memory but this  
might depending on the VM
allocate 512MB or 1024MB of virtual memory because of how the VMs work  
now, and not
have the desired effect it had when VM's had fixed memory sizes eight  
or so years back.
