Hi Thierry, On the speed center you can compare 32 bits and 64 bits linux VMs: http://squeak.org/codespeed/ Normally Pharo 64 should be overall slightly slower than Pharo 32 because 70% of the memory is used for pointers, implying twice more data to process by the processor for pointer operations

2016-11-14 Thread Thierry Goubier
Has anybody seen performance differences between the 32bits and the 64bits versions of Pharo 6 ? I'm seeing a speedup greater than 2 on some intensive numerical code. Note that, on that code, Pharo 64bits is slower than R, by around 30%. The code overall is memory bound. Thierry
