I'm trying to reduce the computation time of the following pseudo-code:

- memory allocation (~40 doubles)

- object heap to C heap copying

- NativeBoost call (nbCall:)

- memory freeing

The time profiling results are bellow:

- 24*3600 calls : > 1 minute

- 24*3600 calls with only memory allocation and copying : < 1 second

- 1 call with a 24*3600 loop inside de C code : < 1 second

So it appears that the very coslty step is the transition from Pharo to C. And I was wondering if it was possible to drasticly reduce this time by doing something like, generate the the machine code once and call it multiple time ?

Thanks in advance !

Thomas.
