-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
I have removed a few unnecessary method calls in src/oo.c that were eating
up significant performance (coretest time on my system dropped from ~4:40
to ~3:40 by removing them). Now, I think the following methods on
NameSpace are unused and should probably be deprecated/removed:
- set_class
- get_associated_methods
- get_associated_vtable_methods
Removing these methods also helps work towards decoupling Class and
NameSpace PMC types, which is a goal several devs have. These methods are
typically for internal use and are not typically used by users of Parrot
directly, so I suspect we do not need to offer an alternative to any of
these things
