I have been trying to use BOSS to store simple data, but the documentation is pathetic. What I would ideally like to do, is something like the following: frabble := TastyBossInterface on: 'file.boss'. frabble at: 'RaceCar' put: aForm. <and then later....> aForm _ frabble at: 'RaceCar'. Is this doable? Has anyone written a BOSS interface to seek to positions in the file, or is it only a sequential stream? On a related issue, what happened to the performance on the MAC? Speed is down, and memory usage seems to be up!! It seems like I'll need a iiCI or better just to get the performance I used to get on 2.3! I think ParcPlace ought to find some other C compiler..... especially If they used MPW's C compiler. Thanks in advance for the info....
