[Cuis] Cuis on Raspberry --- Fwd: [squeak-dev] Our ancient ancestor

[Juan Vuletich]

Hi Hannes,

Tim did run it. I haven't, but based on his RasPI tinybenchmarks I 
(de)tuned my slow test machine to simulate it. Cuis is quite usable in a 
machine in that category, much better than Squeak or Pharo.

Cheers,
Juan Vuletich

>>> It certainly runs 'properly'. The raw performance (currently with the plain interpreter, stackvm coming soon and Cog sometime) is rather good at around 40mbc/s&  1.4msends/s, which is probably around 400 times faster than an Alto. Morphic UI performance is not so good but that is mostly because it's terrible on *all* machines with current high-end Macs etc managing to cover it up with brute power. Run an older image - say 2.8 era - and consider how we have managed to ruin the UI speed. Try an old image on a Pi and be amazed.
