Umm, i am ignorant in this subject but i will share with you the 2 things i
think i got right.

1. Cuis has a plugin for the VM. This make its graphics run fast. If you
want to make it
even faster, GPU ad hoc assemby and friends, it is at the VM level you need
to watch.

2. About Pharo. As far as i remember they are taking a very different path.
Eg. linking
in as much GTK as possible. From one side this is cool, you offload
complexity to
existing C libraries, from the other side your graphical world is limited
to what
GTK can do and it is not controllable from the Smalltalk debugger.

Again, this is the opinion of an ignorant, caveat emptor ;)

bye
Nicola
