rurban1 Hi 12:33
my report 12:34
sorry, missed last week. probably next week also.
DONE:
* jonathan found a fatal msvc regression => 7.0.2
* merge smoke-me/win64-msvc-gh1190
* merge smoke-me/cvt_num16_num8
* merge and release 7.0.2 hotfix
* merge smoke-me/gc-stress-gh1189 (the one GC stress test we were talking about)
* Fix test failures with --ccflags=-DSTRUCT_DEBUG #1195
WORK:
* Optimize StringBuilder.substr smoke-me/stringbuilder-gh1123
and various StringHandle and IO functions. i.e. optimize io_stringhandle_write_b
Reuse write buffer if large enough.
* Fix compact strings on older GCs (ms, ms2) #1196 to get back a fast GC (15%-30% faster)
smoke-me/gcdebug-ms-gh1196
Adding -D101 debugging trace flags
+ Analyze performance loss with --gc gms #1141
+ Add Parrot_{un,}block_GC_move API #1197 for compacting/move steps
Still need to protect current S or P args or locals from being moved.
Need to add it to the pmc2c and ops2c compilers. Maybe add a new PObj flag for this,
or reuse one.
SIGBUS smoke-me/gc-ptrdiff-gh1200 (unaligned access on a RISC cpu, no test machine yet)
+ prepare a RISC vm to test alignment traps: debian armhf not, debian armv7 not,
debian armel not, mips not yet, but got now an armv5 armel debian wheezy
* Better Env on windows: smoke-me/env-gh1191 (putenv_s, wide api for unicode chars)
* change perl5 derived -O2 to -O3 for gcc/clang #1185
* smoke-me/slow-mod (optionally ignore mod by negative numbers, our slow mod is a big bottleneck)
* optionally get rid of GC stats numfree rurban/gcms-numfree
* some more minor tickets: ARG*_ALIAS #1198, pmc_default.h #1194, .# checkdepend.t #1199
* Deprecate Parrot_list_* and GC allocate_bufferlike_header, ... funcs #1179 12:35
eor
Util Hi! 13:34

# Doing:
* Lots of progress on the P5->P5 modernizer in Blue_Tiger.
