10 | - implement a JIT compiler for part of the thread switch code, |
|
|
11 | which gives a 50% speed improvement on threaded perls, and |
|
|
12 | about 4% on non-thraeded perls (so threaded perls now finally |
|
|
13 | reach about half the speed of non-threaded perls). |
|
|
14 | - avoid DEFSV and ERRSV, giving another 10% improvement |
|
|
15 | in thread switching. |

19 | - add preliminary support for DEBUGGING perls. |

|
20 | - get rid of two hash-accesses when initialising a new Coro - this |

21 | speeds up coro creation by almost a factor of two. |
