Hi Esteban,
What flavour of VM is going to be in Pharo 6 release?
Do you think a move to the thread-beat one is a feasible?
On Case 19820 "Epicea: GrafPort error when open browser" [1]
I see the comment "These are two different VM versions. In both I have
sometimes this crash, sometimes another crashes. The threaded VM
version seems to be working (it's what I'm using now), but with the
itimer ones I started to have this crashes."
and I guess the thread-beat is more robust in interaction with third-party FFI
signal handling.
Should we particularly encourage everyone to update to latest thread-beat VM
to provide additional testing before release?
cheers -ben
