Sorry if this is a silly question but is the to! method from
the conv library the most efficient way of converting an
integer value to a string?
e.g.
string s = to!string(100);
I'm seeing a pretty dramatic slow down in my code when I use a
conversion like this (when looped over 10 million iterations
for benchmarking).
Cheers!
Out of curiosity a slow down compared to what? No conversion at
all?
Yeah, if I include a simple conversion in my loop:
for({int i; i = 0;} i < num; i++) {
//string s = to!string(i);
Customer c = Customer(i, "Customer", "99998888",
i * 2);
string result = objS.serialize(c);
}
If I uncomment the "string s" line I'm seeing a 20% increase in
running time, which given what's going on the rest of the code is
quite surprising. I've tried compiling with both dmd and ldc2 -
it's the same under both.
Cheers.
