Hi david
this is really strange because 3.9 is much snappier than 3.8 on our machines. This is strange.
Do you use a special settings (such as some strange smallland setup?)

You're certainly right Brad but let me add that the Squeak 3.9 image is
unbearably slow on my linux-based laptop (2Ghz Pentium 4M, 1Gb RAM).
I've even tried VM's from 3.8 to Ian's recent 3.9 release.  It is too
slow for simple window operations and causes a gastly amount of CPU
utilization even under lite GUI use.  Antonio might be reflecting on
this same perception of slowness and frankly I'm sure that any amount of
"proper scientific testing" is going to reveal that it feels like
walking though mud ;-)

Anyway I'm still using a 3.7 image for development.  Nice and snappy.

David
