the first bench is kind-of 'measure time to access directly to objects' the second one is 'measure indirect access' and third is measure a loop overhead.
Hi there, I've just arrived to this thread (thanks to Mariano), and I wanted to share some speculations: Having JIT'ed code with self (the oop of the actual object) in a register, and selfID (the id of self in the object table) in a second register. We have: accessing ivar: no extra cost method lookup: one extra indirection sends with MonomorphicInlineCache: no extra cost if implemented in an instance basis (checking against selfID). One indirection otherwise
GC (MarkAndCompact): Faster (due to the removal of the threading process).
