When I have a little more time, I will look over this in more detail,
but an obvious small change to me is the function
SWModule::filterBuffer. It contains the following code:
FilterList::iterator it;
for (it = filters->begin(); it != filters->end(); it++) {
(*it)->ProcessText(buf, size, key);
}
I suggest changing this to:
FilterList::iterator i1 = filter->begin;
const FilterList::iterator i2 = filter->end();
for(; i1 != i2; ++i1) {
(*i1)->ProcessText(buf, size, key);
}
although, I think on a decent optimising compiler it shouldn't make a
difference. (Except the call to pre-inc. instead of post-inc. on the
iterator, which would likely still make a difference but didn't show up
on the profiling results as being terribly substantial).
It will only make a difference of a couple of percent at best, but it is
something obvious I saw...
Blessings,
David.
