So I really don't give a damn about allocations .. not one
little bit ;-)
Having the right mindset helps not make these mistakes in the
future
Changing habits is hard, make sure to train yourself to pick
the right one, early if possible
Umm.. you kinda missed the last part of my post...
..where I said..'Now if I were running a million processes across
1000's of servers, I probably would give a damn.'
C'mon... nothing in my code was 'unacceptable' in terms of speed
or efficiency.
Making code transformations to improve speed and efficieny are
important, but secondary. A newcomer cannot improve code that
they do not understand ;-)
Picking understandable code first, IS right.
In any case, I say again, this thread is not about writing
performance code per se, but about presenting code to new-comers,
that they can make some sense of.
Taking some C code, and writing/presenting it in D (or
vica-versa) in such a way that you can longer make any sense of
it, is kinda futile.
I doubt the original op will ever come back to D, after seeing
some of those examples that were provided ;-)
