A new, high performance Smalltalk-80™ implementation is described which builds directly upon two previous implementation efforts. This implementation supports a large object space while retaining compatibility with previous Smalltalk-80™ images. The implementation utilizes a interpreter which incorporates a generation based garbage collector and which does not have an object table. This paper describes the design decisions which lead to this implementation and reports preliminary performance results.
