Howdy, I was under the impression that our new default GC is better designed, but still does not have optimal behavior in terms of memory use. Most people don't feel it because they have lots of memory. Am I wrong about that? Duke On Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 5:44 AM, Andrew Whitworth wrote: > This

String.reverse patch

Howdy, I put a new patch here relating to to String.reverse : http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/1821 We should really fix this before the 2.9.0 release, since it actually breaks our deprecation policy. There is some issue where the strings do not pass a string equality test, even though they

Howdy, It looks like darbelo++ removed the String.reverse VTABLE as part of the immutable strings in r46290, but I don't think the deprecation policy was followed. The change is not listed in the history of DEPRECATED.pod, nor is it on http://trac.parrot.org/parrot/wiki/ParrotDeprecations or http
