Greetings, and thanks Vadim! This is now committed.
You asked earlier about a 2.7.0 roadmap. I'll try to put together a
comprehensive list soon, but obviously the top is ansi compliance.
I'm wondering if I can solicit you help in proposing some patches to
close some of our ansi test suite failures. If so, do you have an
area with which you feel most comfortable? I'd really appreciate
someone concentrating on the formatter/printer if possible. The idea
of course is to preserve the spirit of the code in place.
Take care,
Hi Camm!
I've been testing recent gcl 2.7.0 twc with Maxima
and observe several Maxima test failures and some
performance degradation. First of all I'd like
to consier these issues. Formatter/printer is OK
Thank you for looking into this! I'd suggestion using the tag
Version_2_7_0t1.
There are two possible performance related issues of which I am
aware.
1) We have a smaller default hole size which expands with the core
proportionally. This should add a bit of time purely in gc, and
can be circumvented by setting the hole size.
2) There was an array compilation problem that has since been cleared
in the above mentioned tagged version.
OK, I'll look into this shortly (I hope :-)
for me but I can't really tell when I could
dive into the problem - recently my schedule
for this summer hardened quite a bit.
But I really don't know it may be really
not so bad ...
Would be very helpful!
I'm hoping we can release by summer's end, but I don't think we should
until the overwhelming majority of Paul's ansi tests pass.
Probably I can do something substantial only in August.
