Right, that's done. The new graphs are up at: http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/ The original data is at: http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/epic.txt Here's the relative performance for all routines with eight byte aligned data and 128 byte blocks: http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/top-000128.png memchr, memcpy, strcpy, and strlen all look good at this block size. Here's the speed versus block size for eight byte aligned data: http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-memchr-08.png http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-memset-08.png http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-strchr-08.png http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-strchr-08.png http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-strcmp-08.png http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-strcpy-08.png http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/sizes-strlen-08.png memchr is good. memset could be better for blocks of less than 1k. strchr gets second place but is eclipsed by newlib's version. strcmp need work. strcmp is good. strlen is good but the wobbles could use some investigation. And here's a graph of how the performance changes with initial alignment: http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/strings-performance/alignment-memcpy-64.png -- Michael _______________________________________________ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
