Yes if you do not use the same vm , the problem is that you will compare apple and orange. Stef

Yes, I think that is the normal and more or less the expected difference right now.
Do you want to make some comparisons with the GNU Smalltalk ObjectDumper? I can help, or I can even make some comparisons myself if you give me some test Fuel code and an image to test with.
Hi Paolo. ObjectDumper was one of the serializers that we wanted to analyze also to get ideas and compare. This is why once I tried to install GNU Smalltalk in my machine but I couldn't so I give up. The problem to compare ObjectDumper is that we need to be able to run both in the same Dialect/VM. Otherwise the difference of the dialect or VM can change the results a lot.
Sorry for the offtopic but is there an easy way to install GNU Smalltalk in a Mac OS 10.6.7 ?
Thanks
