535 At least, after 2 years of hard work, we managed to release the 3.3
536 version of the SimGrid framework. There is so many changes that the
537 changelog only lists the most important ones, leaving alone the small
538 improvements, bug fixing and new gadgets.
542 * New simulation models, and improvement of the GTNetS wrapper
544 * Large memory savings (mainly in parser)
545 * Faster (twice faster is not uncommon, and from 20 hours to 2
546 minutes on very large scenarios)
547 * Much better scalability (tested up to 250,000 processes)
549 * Complete regression testing framework so that you can trust the tool
550 * Lot of neat new modules in the XBT toolbox
552 This version was thoroughly tested on linux 32bits and 64bits
553 (debian), as well as Mac OSX (leopard).
555 Unfortunately, our windows-guy left, and we cannot release the windows
556 version at the same time than the other archs. Any help would be
557 really welcomed here.
559 Some of the 96 included test suites are known to fail, but everything
560 should work anyway (don't panic):
561 * The amok module does not work in real deployment ATM, but I don't
562 see this as release critical since I'm not aware of anyone needing
564 * Some tests about the ability of GRAS to receive messages from
565 exotic platforms fail because I've lost access to these platforms
567 * the example/gras/pmm sometimes fails (about 1/10 of cases). I'm
568 quite puzzled, but I suspect a bug in the test, not in the lib.
569 * the tesh auto-tests "fail" on Mac OSX. This is because "rm -rf" is
570 sometimes too verbose (when the OS creates hidden files, I
571 suspect), but tesh definitely work as the rest on this arch.
573 We hope to manage to do more timely releases in the future, even if
574 that may turn out difficult since big stuff is coming (I don't say
575 much here for the suspense ;)
577 We hope you'll enjoy this new version, and please report any feedback
578 on the <simgrid-user@lists.gforge.inria.fr> list.
