ekecole, I don't understand your comment. There are two scratch interpreters, one written in java (for the web applets) and one written in Squeak. Canthiar was noticing the difference in the two implementations.

*in response to a certain 'Canthiar' who will probably never read this* LOL! 'Squeak'? Tell me somebody caught that.

I don't know whether the timer in the java implementation has bugs, or whether it is just a really slow implementation. From the behavior I have seen in some programs, I suspect bugs, but this tool is not adequate for determining that.

OK this is all fancy talk! there's some internal software clock that is goofy in the way it times things / clock cycles for events? Foob

very intersting... in squeak by displays were approximately bimodally distributed around 0.0025 (lots of variance) and 0.01 (a little variance), but in java I was shocked to see they were distributed around 0.06 and 0.21 (with no variance at all). This is a much longer delay

It really shows a big difference between the timer in the Java version and the timer in the Squeak version.
