Changelog

v3.0.3

• Enhancement: optimisation, on linux use transparent huge pages for heaps of at least 20 mb.
• Enhancement: several optimisations of the compacting garbage collector.
• Fix: bug in the marking collector, the counter in rbp before the _push_lazy_args loop was 1 too many for thunks with unboxed values, so the evaluation address was used also as a pointer to a node, but because only pointers inside the heap are marked and this address is outside the heap.

v3.0.2

• Fix: fix copying garbage collector for thunks with 1 unboxed value on x86 and x64.
• Fix: fix computation of number of words of the bit vector to be zeroed in the x64 copying collector.

v3.0.1

• Fix: fix profiling object files on linux-x86.

v3.0

• Feature: add support for {..:} arrays which reserve the next power of 2 of memory.

v2.0

• Enhancement: add dedicated _ARRAY_ descriptors for unboxed arrays of Int, Real, Bool, 32-bit Int, and 32-bit Real, to save space. Add _ARRAY_R_ descriptor for unboxed arrays of records.
