Re: inferno acme programs under plan9 acme?
at first thought, it should be pretty trivial - just do the bind of #U/mnt/acme before running your program. the rest of the p9 namespace won't be in the usual place though, but that might not be a problem depending on which program you want to run. 2009/11/7 Anthony Sorace <anothy@...>: > anyone ever glued the pieces together right to get an inferno acme > program running using the namespace exported by plan9's acme? > i suppose going the other direction would be interesting as well, > although it feels somehow less natural. >

Great Compiler Shootout: thread-ring
Hiya, I just implemented a solution to the thread-ring (http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32q/benchmark.php?test=threadring&lang=all) benchmark in Limbo. On very similar hardware to the test machine (Core 2 6700 instead of the 6600 they used), Limbo finished the test in ~9.5 sec, which would put it third, after C with the LWP library and Haskell / GHC. Just thought people would be interested. -- vs

Re: Great Compiler Shootout: thread-ring
The thread ring benchmark doesn't allow coroutines does it?

Re: Polymorphism & value types
it's difficult to do polymorphism on value types without generating type-specific code on the fly. this is possible (.NET does it for example) but quite a bit of work to do. until that work is done, polymorphism is on pointer types only, i'm afraid. note that most languages that provide polymorphism on arbitrary types have a universal 1-word representation of a value. 2009/11/9 Venkatesh Srinivas <me@...>: > Is there any particular reason polymorphism isn't allowed on value types? > Is > there a chance this will be changed in the future? > > I have a written up a simple Rendezvous[T], but the most common type to use > it > with would be an int... which is impossible. > > Thanks, > -- vs >

2009/11/9 Noah Evans <noah.evans@...>: > The thread ring benchmark doesn't allow coroutines does it? i think inferno processes would probably qualify as lightwight threads. i don't see them specifying that the threads must run on multiple processors simultaneously.

Re: Great Compiler Shootout: thread-ring
venkatesh mentioned he was looking at the Chameneos test, (http://bit.ly/37uXTm) and i'm ashamed to say i couldn't resist implementing a version of it (attached). it runs in 24 seconds on my macbook with N = 6000000. that's not fast by the standards of the other languages in the test, but it might be noteworthy that i spent almost no time debugging the concurrent aspects of the code (i think i recompiled three times, and they were all for trivial and easy to find mistakes). any takers for a better implementation?
