Well, a contemporary look will always drive the computer harder...
Don't really find it a problem here though. Main PC is a 2.8MHzQuadCore, lappie 
is a 1.7MHz Centrino.
Guess you might benefit from faster hardware.

The SoftSqueak theme seems to be the fastest overall, curious since nicer 
looking than StandardSqueak (which is, essentially, a pass-through replication 
of the original code).

I guess a poll of some kind of benchmark for all on the list may be in order...

Thanks for the support.

Regards, Gary.

  Gary: First of all, thanks for your excellent work.

  I really like Polymorph and I use it as my default "theme". Very very 
impressive.

  However, squeak seems to be a bit slower with it. For example, in SqueakDBX 
we are 4 developers. Two of them cannot use it because is slower enough to 
loose their patient. 

  I am still newbie in squeak so I really don't know the resasons of this. 
Perhaps this is a morphic thing and nothing about Polymorph. If this is the 
case, sorry.

  Please, continue with your work. I really enjoy Polymorph and happy to be the 
default in pharo.

  Cheers,

  Mariano

    Happy to consider things... just would be nice to have a central point for
    moving forward with Polymorph (in particular) or other tools...

    There is a possibility of open-source release of the PackageListTool
    
(http://www.flickr.com/photos/12018...@n06/2616669616/in/set-72157601659393251/)
    if there is any interest.

    Regards, Gary.
