<p><img align="right" src="benchmark.png"> This was interesting for
|
||
|
|
me: it's some benchmark data collected over all versions of this
|
||
|
|
program starting from version 0.4 and up to the compiler in version
|
||
|
|
0.7. Most of the effort in tuning the program has paid off. The
|
||
|
|
compilation occasionally loses vs. interpretation in very short
|
||
|
|
programs or those that don't loop much (you can see this effect
|
||
|
|
in <code>dynamic</code> and <code>dderiv</code>. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Otherwise, in die-hard computational scenarios
|
||
|
|
like <code>ack</code> and <code>puzzle</code>, the compiler is seen at
|
||
|
|
its best.</p>
