Hi,
On my brother box, PII 400 MHz, 256MB RAM, I can see speed improvements very similar to the catventures PC.
Very good !
... but my computer needs exorcist !
On my AMD Duron 850 MHz, 320 MB RAM I still get the same or few milliseconds worse results, see here ( old version, new version):
TestSpeed
----------
100000 FOR = 675,742 msec
100000 WHILE = 795,785 msec
100000 DO WHILE 810,785 msec
100000 DO UNTIL 810,790 msec
total = 3090,3102 msec
final msg = 2,0 msec
TestSpeedCountOneMillion
-------------------------
3.35, 3.35 secs
TestSpeedCountOneMillionNoFunction
-----------------------------------
3.18, 3.20 secs
TestSpeed2
-----------
885,957 msecs
TestSpeed2Function
-------------------
2.52,2.75 msecs
TestSpeed2Typed
----------------
1.27,1.31 msecs
Any ideas ? I know Durons were punished by smaller cache than Athlons and other minor breaks, is it possible I'm reaching limits on my box ? I'm absolutely ok with current thinBASIC execution speed, just wonder why it does not move :'(
Bye,
Petr
