At some point I read that the 387-era FPU instructions are way too slow by comparison nowadays, but I thought if that’s the case then probably the compilers are doing whatever is fastest by now... > Passing float inside a struct means it's passed in the x86 stack instead. No difference whether by value or by reference? The compiler couldn’t break up the struct and put different members in different registers? _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
