commit 628021146f6890d41175cc2eafc3da120da11948
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Sun Jun 26 02:18:52 2011 -0400
Extended the float fix to Doubles. Fixed a bug introduced by the last
checkin. next is not a sufficient substitute for randomBounded in the Int
instance. It doesn't have sufficient genRange.
commit 13c12c3bd2ccf5b079c90e148a6d1e896c0c60ed
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Sun Jun 26 00:24:46 2011 -0400
Fixed performance dent for random generating Ints. I can't explain why it
was slower than other types using randomBounded, but this patch circumvents the
problem by using next directly.
commit 27150e4d63dde0384d168db9e5ac5944e658c5f0
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Sun Jun 26 00:08:40 2011 -0400
Tweaked SimpleRNGBench to be warning-free as well and added some additional
tests of randomR alongside random.

Tweaked BinSearch to issue no warnings.
commit d37c1bf1b273cbc5a91b879f497a878d83439c0b
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Sat Jun 25 23:54:36 2011 -0400
Small tweaks to fix Integer-defaulting warnings.
commit 48cf0ffa4e70ba4e8f3ce7d434b7bce4918890ca
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Jun 24 22:44:54 2011 -0400
Adding a DEVLOG file to keep track of development.
commit 4cfc44a16bd9dea222882e1762e8fb7407411600
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Jun 24 22:39:44 2011 -0400
Fix #5133 - also yields this change a 240X speedup in generating random
floats in my tests.
commit d9a5313593b53655f6024105c7122cae71ca4042
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Jun 24 18:22:26 2011 -0400
Cleaned up the simple benchmark and added tests for non-Int datatypes. The
results are a bit surprising. Float generation is performing badly.
Here are some results from a 3.33ghz Intel Nehalem:
Cost of rdtsc (ffi call): 75
Approx getCPUTime calls per second: 206,493
Approx clock frequency: 3,336,174,789
First, timing with System.Random interface:

commit e7f72c84cb7dec28a417ce24d085d31e9d97160d
Author: Ryan Newton <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Jun 24 14:26:22 2011 -0400
Added some very minor comments and a simple benchmarking script.
Using this script I saw a 13X regression in stdGen in recent revisions
vs the 1.0.0.3 version, dropping to only 900K random ints/sec on my
machine. However, it was some kind of heisenbug because now it's gone
away for unknown reasons. Watch out for it in the future though.
