Re: RE: Why Squeak is so sloooow?

Hi antonio

You should pay attention that some aspects of morphic are slow.
Lot of events are generated.... Now squeak is reasonably fast (much  
faster than python and ruby in general).
Can you tell us more about the kind of game you want to build.
You can also use VisualWorks non commercial which is quite fast.
