Hi,
I am looking for early articles describing IMP caching for Objective C on NeXTstep. So far, most of the information I could find is related to OS X (e.g.
http://www.mulle-kybernetik.com/artikel/Optimization/opti-9.html). Google Groups also only seems to find articles from 2000 on.
However, I assume the overhead caused by message sending should be much more relevant on NeXTstep (especially 68k machines), so I assume that people tried optimizing performance early on. If someone could point me to early references to this, please enlighten me :).
