For the record. I'm implementor of original "switch based MULTI optimization". It improved math op performance 500%. Just because PCC+MMD are extremely slow and put additional pressure on GC. -- Bacek On Sat, Mar 12, 2011 at 10:30 AM, Jonathan "Duke" Leto wrote: > Howdy, > > Correctness wins ov

pmc2c-multi-nativepccmethod branch ready for testing

2011-03-11 Thread Peter Lobsinger
The pmc2c-multi-nativepccmethod branch changes the implementation of MULTIs in .pmc files from NCI to NativePCCMethod. This means that these now handle their own PCC, in stead of rellying on NCI thunks to accomplish this. These can now be modified to access a more broad range of PCC functionality.

I have started an overhaul of the Parrot project ideas page already. I've converted project ideas listed there previously into proper templates that show most of the information fields we will need to have.
