Hi, Aleph is the fantasy name of the index manager. Basically, it is a set of indexes we are using on the image. As Esteban said, everything should work in Pharo 8, but it requires harvesting some changes I have made in the Pharo 9 image, so I will try to do it this week.
Today I will try to fix some of the issues while generating the indexes the first time. The only issue is that it takes a lot of time, I want to reduce it to something usable.
