Would be interesting to see a more detailed comparison in speed between delphi and fpc validating the same large prime. Keep us posted.
With big numbers, the speed is the same. With such numbers 99% of the running time is spent in computations and both versions make use of the same assembler code. For instance, the certification of 10^1499 + 2001 (1500 decimal digits) Version Lazarus0.9.14/FPC2.0.2 Delphi5 Initialization= 1.52s 1.50s 1stPhase= 1h 34mn 37s 1h 37mn 12s 2ndPhase= 16mn 1s 16mn 38s Total= 1h 50mn 40s 1h 53mn 53s That's the same. mm _________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives
