Wiki - Tuning Mono - sgen
« on: September 12, 2011, 07:56:17 PM »
On the Tuning Mono wiki page...

It says to use the garbage collector. So I attempted to use it and bash told me it doesn't exist. I looked on the mono hompage and found:
The code is ready for wider testing but it not yet considered production ready. In Git Mono or mono 2.8+, a separate mono executable, named "mono-sgen", is built, that uses the SGen garbage collector.
Where do I get this binary? It didn't seem to compile with mono 2.10.2. My $PATH includes /usr/bin which is where I found the mono executable. I looked for the mono-sgen executable but didn't find it, shouldn't it be in there with mono?
Server Machine: Xubuntu 11.10 Xfce Mono 2.10.5
Thanks to all those who work on TDSM. It's a great alternative to the official one. And thanks to the plugin devs too for making it even better.

It's exactly where the rest of the mono executables are. You probably used that old install tutorial that only linked mono and gmcs from mono's install prefix to /usr/bin.

We have our own tutorial now: http://wiki.tdsm.org/index.php?title=Mono_Install.

Regardless you can just as well use mono --gc=sgen.
I'm employed full-time now, that's why you don't see me much.

Yep, exactly. Thanks.

I will be recompiling with that on my server soon. I'm glad to see the wiki actually starting to fill in.  :)
