hi!
Just a report: successfully generated a working VM + image on cygwin.
Tried to compile the same vm with VC++ and it works fine, except when an
optimization called "Global Optimizations" is turned on. In that case
loading the image ends up in a "Slate: Unhandled signal".
I don't know what this optimization do, but changing it makes the 130k
exe to be only 100k.
And another note: the VC++ compiled vm is noticably slower... loading
the image with the gcc version takes 3 secs, while with VC++ version it
takes 9 secs!
Could be due to it's code size + cache size, but I can't lower the size
of the exe with any optimizations.
That's all for now,
- 101
