In addition to now passing all tests, parrot is lightening fast in comparison to what it was only a few short hours ago. What a difference after:
--intval=long --opcode=long $ time parrot primes2.pasm N primes calculated to 5000 is 670 last is: 4999 real 0m4.148s user 0m3.905s sys 0m0.045s This was about 6s prior to Leo's Configure.pl suggestion. parrot -j <anything> coredumped previously $ time parrot -j primes2.pasm N primes calculated to 5000 is 670 last is: 4999 real 0m2.182s user 0m2.155s sys 0m0.015s I am very very very happy. Thanks Leo, George R, and anyone/everyone else that helped. Cheers Joshua Gatcomb a.k.a. Limbic~Region __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo!
