All right, I have re-run the Sieve benchmark on GNU APL as of svn id 669. I do see differences, but they are not great. I also ran it on a reduced case in order to have it finish quicker, so the breakdown could be incorrect. I will re-run this on the full (SIEVE 100000) test case and report back.
I can still see Clone taking ridiculous amounts of time though. Regards, Elias On 29 August 2015 at 11:42, Elias Mårtenson <loke...@gmail.com> wrote: > I never analysed the Sieve benchmark.
