Agner Fog, in his well known optimization guide, claims that Digital Mars compilers are rather weak optimizers. But the features of D language are indeed admirable. I would be grateful to see direct performance comparison on MC Go program (or on anything else)
http://www.agner.org/ BTW Does anybody know what is the performance of the native compiled C# ? Best Regards, Lukasz On 12/4/06, Don Dailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Since we have been talking about programming language recently, I was curious as to whether anyone on this group has experimented with the digital mars D programming language? >From the hype on the web page, it looks an extremely capable programming language that is supposed to be fast native code compiled like C, but have all the features you might ask for in a higher level language. It may be complete garbage for all I know, but at least from the description it seems like something I would be happy to use. It looks like a cleaned up version of C, with a bunch of higher level language features built right in such as associative arrays, garbage collection, dynamic arrays, oop, etc. It compiles to native code, has a GCC compiler as well as a digital mars compiler. Since my go program is tiny, I may give it a try and do a speed comparison. But I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience with it, good or bad. http://www.digitalmars.com/d/index.html - Don _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
