Hello, I built an image with DataFrames (only) as an extra module, and the loading of it is now much faster. Here is the new timing of module loading (PyPlot and Winston are not in the sys image). C:\Users\me>julia timeLoading.jl start time: 0 using DataFrames... loading... load time: 0.6729998588562012 secs using PyPlot... loading... INFO: Loading help data... load time: 15.241000175476074 secs using Winston... loading... load time: 5.635999917984009 secs
In REPL 'using DataFrames' don't causes crashes or other odd behavior (in my previous post I screwed up with 'Dataframes' instead of 'FataFrames' and didn't notice the typo...). I didn't do exhaustive tests to DataFrames now but a small program I'm developing that uses some of its features is working. I'll inform about any odd behavior I detect. Meanwhile I also built an image with both DataFrames and Winston. But now 'using Winston' was accepted in the REPL (and loaded fast, of course), but when running plot(), nothing is displayed and the REPL is closed silently. So, in the end it seems that in Windows 7, 64 bits, some Julia modules are able to be included in the sys.ji image (DataFrames, for instance) while other aren't (Gadfly, Winston). Don't know how this relates with Linux/OSx installations... or what happens with other modules. Regards Jose
