Hi all,
After reading through your comments from my last post, I have
implemented most of the changes you have requested.
* Added Compile times
* Added Memory and Virtual Memory usage
* Added final executable size
* Tests are now run 4 times, and readings are the minimum taken from
the last three runs only (or maximum in the case of memory usage)
* Graphs now line up properly
* More detailed compiler information is given
* Benchmarks have been tweaked to last longer
The only request I believe I've missed (correct me if I'm wrong!) is a C
or C++ reference. This was planned for inclusion, but I couldn't come to
a conclusion on which compiler to include and whether to use C or C++.
Before you suggest having multiple references, I would rather only have
one reference otherwise it becomes more general language benchmarks
rather than D.
The benchmarks can be found at http://dbench.octarineparrot.com/.
Updated source code can be found at
http://hg.octarineparrot.com/dbench/file/tip.
Again, if you have any comments or ideas for improvements let me know!
If you can come to a conclusion on what C/C++ compiler to use as a
reference I will rerun the benchmarks with a reference.
