Rakudo Issue 1918: Test Slurpy Positional params with .assuming		 02:07
02:11 ufobat_ joined 02:15 ufobat left
MasterDuke timotimo: if sometimes an @-sigiled something is an NQPArray (so nqp::elems is fine) and sometimes it's an Array (so .elems is fine), is there a single say that will work for either case? 03:25
timotimo hm, .elems doesn't work with NQPArray? 03:26
MasterDuke: was it you who figured out the profiler missing one GC run by having its index be -1? 03:27
MasterDuke well, i noticed something 03:28
i think you actually found what was going on 03:29
and lizmat may have been the first to notice. or at least she noticed something, and then i went and maybe found something else?
timotimo i'm asking because my newest blog post was kind of implying "i fixed that" even though someone else basically did most of the detective work 03:30
and i didn't just want to take credit like that
anyway, all i think you can do is nqp::islist if NQPArray doesn't offer .elems; if it does, i'm hopeful that spesh will inline it gladly 03:31
BBL
MasterDuke i think of it sort of like i catalogued the symptoms, you made the diagnosis and the fix 03:32
later...
samcv i've gotten native int* and uint* types working in repl without the previous error after a fair amount of work in MoraVM and nqp 04:05
it shows a newer error certain times but it's a rakudo issue now instead of being a MoarVM and NQP issue 04:06
oh actually so there's no more issues at all for signed native ints now \o/ 04:07
but with uint's it will say "No such method 'perl' for invocant of type 'Perl6::Compiler'

Make Array use the the Scalar descriptor model

Instead of setting a `$!whence`, it now creates a descriptor that does the bind into the array's storage.		 09:50

AlexDaniel ok canary is green: travis-ci.org/perl6/rakudo-pkg-can...tification 10:15
and my sakefile goes through without any errors 10:16
so I guess these blockers that we have there already are the only ones
but we'll see
jnthn AlexDaniel: I left comments on one of the blockers; your feelings on what to do there are welcome 10:18
AlexDaniel oh yeah I've seen that, got carried away with other things though 10:19

Move ContainerDescriptor classes into BOOTSTRAP

So that we'll be able to refer to the stubbed Perl 6 types and not have to pass them in as an attribute every single time, which is not good on a hot path.		 11:13

nine timotimo: the issue with nqp::list($var) ?? nqp::elems($var) !! $var.elems is that $var will be evaluated 3 times causing redeclaration errors. Also it's not sure this is actually faster than the "unoptimized" +@list. So either we add the appropriate workaround in in method install_package, or we just revert the optimization 12:01

Eliminate the now-unused $!whence from Scalar

Making every Scalar container a pointer smaller. Since Array and Hash slots are also Scalar containers, they also get this much smaller per element (so on a 64-bit platform, a thousand element object Array gets 8000 bytes smaller).		 13:50

Got some other things to take care of right now. Next week's rescalar work will be unbusting the JVM build a bit more after these changes, and then digging in to using the spesh plugin mechanism to optimize assignment 13:57
And then probably lots of tweaking to improve the code quality 13:58
As in, quality of code generated after optimization. Not quality of the code I've just been writing. :P
