really really hurts.
The test seems to hang. Actually, it's just taking forever (not sure how
close an approximation that is) for --gc-debug. If I run without -gc-debug
it completes.
Timings for a run of 10,000 (not 100,000) on a 1.2 GHz Powerbook are
$ time ./parrot --gc-debug t/pmc/resizablestringarray_11.pasm
ok
real 0m18.438s
user 0m15.880s
sys 0m0.420s
whereas 9000 is
real 0m18.438s
user 0m15.880s
sys 0m0.420s
so the slowdown is worse than linear.
It's also tying up a fast x86 FreeBSD box, so it's not something PPC or
OS X specific.
Did it really need to be higher than (say) 5000?
