just for the kicks i tried the new version of bytestring without -O2 and the
results were even worse:
time Main1 < nums
real 0m40.092s
user 0m0.015s
sys 0m0.015s
time Main3 < nums
real 0m41.405s
user 0m0.015s
sys 0m0.015s
it got pwned even by this very naive ruby scipt (which, btw, chewed through
some ~600 MB of memory ;-))
File.open("nums","r") do |f|
puts((f.read.split.each {|x| x.to_i }).length)
end
time ruby nums.rb
real 0m21.609s
user 0m0.015s
sys 0m0.015s
so it probably can't be stressed enough: repeat "-O2"
and now seriously:
is there a reason why -O2 shouldn't be made the default (and allowing to
turn off optimizations by -O0 perhaps) ?
