Have you done any benchmarks to see if there's any difference in method invocation speed?

I'm probably completely wrong, but I had heard something about libffi being part of gcc, and hard to find/install as a separate entity, i.e. on an embedded system. Is this why you'd merge it into kaffe? Thanks, Rob. > cheers, > dalibor topic > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
