I mean, if you go to the website, download both VMs, and run, I think that yes. Maybe compiling Linux vms with particular flags in the configure, you may have better results. I said this in another thread I people said I was talking bullship, so, I won't talk any more. I let you two links in case you are interested to read: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-apparently-slow-on-linux-td1304643.html#a1304643 http://forum.world.st/Squeak-VM-FT2Plugin-all-Pharo-1-0-rc3-tests-green-tp1692857p1692857.html > Shouldn't a Linux server box be faster at networking/IO/CPU than a MacBook > Pro running the full Mac OS X GUI ? > not necessary.

First the flags when compiling the VM. Check the version of GCC. Then you can check all the parameters of the GC and etc...but I have no idea how to tune this. > I currently run the VM with: > > Squeak-4.0.3.2202-linux_i386/bin/squeak -vm-display-null > -vm-sound-null deploy.image > > What are others using in the Seaside deploy area ? > > Thanks, > > Sven > > > _______________________________________________ > Pharo-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-users >
