I'm working on the CPS version and will make it public when it's done. It may take a week or so; this term started at 90 and has picked up. I have several benchmark sources that aren't public yet, but I can put them online for your perusal. > > AFAICS, you have benchmarks for IterateeM-driven code already: > http://inmachina.net/~jwlato/haskell/iteratee/tests/benchmarks.hs Those will make more sense when I've added the context of the codebases in use. There are several more sets of output that I simply haven't published yet, including bytestring-based variants. > > John Millikin <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I wrote some criterion benchmarks for IterateeM vs IterateeCPS, and >> the CPS version was notably slower.

I wonder if I'll see the same, and if I'd be able to figure it out myself... Did you benchmark any cases without doing IO? Sometimes the cost of the IO can overwhelm any other measurable differences, and also disk caching can affect results. Criterion should highlight any major outliers, but I still like to avoid IO when benchmarking unless strictly necessary. > > @jmillikin: > Could you please publish those benchmarks? +1 John _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
