Also, unless things have changed, multiple op dispatch cores are
built in standard Parrot. I'm behind on my reading the list, so
someone will correct me if I missed it, but last time I worked with
the code there were 5 cores, just for experimental reasons.

Ideally, for production the config will choose one safe core as well
as the JIT which results in a much smaller binary and resident size.

Memory usage as well as startup time aren't optimized at all. One thing 
comes to my mind immediately: the MMD_table takes more than 1 MB and setup 
time is in prominent position in profile logs.

Yeah, I've seen it. Thanks a lot for updating all.


Performance seems much better with the interpreter
flags suggested.  Please let me know if you notice any problems.


Yup. Fasta and random seem to be unable to load random_lib.pir, as that  
file wasn't in the debian package, when that was built. Loading the  
file should work, if it is copied to runtime/library (that location  
where e.g. PGE.pbc is).


Thanks again,

I'm surprised that Parrot's memory usage is so high relative to other
platforms.  It looks like a hog even relative to Java.  Has anyone taken
a serious look at where all that memory is going?
