Hi, For what it's worth, I used to build Parrot and Rakudo and mod_parrot on a Buffalo Linkstation with 128 MB RAM. I used to successfully use dlfunc to load sqlite3 functions and bind them into Rakudo where I was enjoying learning Perl 6 while working on a Web DB project. That was back in the pre 1.0 Parrot days. Unfortunately performance has got steadily slower and binding C code harder to achieve so I shelved it and have been looking forward to the day I might have time to contribute to making Parrot and Rakudo faster.
I get the impression from today's #parrotsketch that running Parrot and Rakudo on a 128 MB Linkstation is not considered to be a valid goal any more. Surely Parrot and Rakudo should be able to run with comparable performance to Perl 5 or Python or Ruby on this size of hardware? Cheers, Donald.
