Um, I think I'm inventing my own notation. By "so that A + B ~ B" , I meant "would the speed improvement from adding J5 and Strongtalk-types to Squeak, be approximately equal to the speed improvement from just adding J5 to Squeak".

Let's call the speed gains from typing a la StrongTalk, A, and let's call the speed gains from J5, B.

Would J5 and types together equal a speed improvement of A + B? Or does the stuff Ian is doing with J5 involve some kind of magic typing behind-the-scenes, so that A + B ~ B?
