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