STINNER Victor added the comment: "Including the wmemcmp patch did not improve the times on MSC v.1600 32 bit - if anything, the performance was a little slower for the test I used:"
I tested my patch on Windows before the commit and I saw similar performances with and without wmemcmp(). I checked again and you are true: performances are *a little bit* worse using wmemcmp(). "Looking at the assembler, there is a real call to wmemcmp which adds some time and wmemcmp does not seem to be optimized compared to a simple loop." You should be true. I reverted the patch for 16-bit wchar_t to use a dummy loop instead. 16-bit wchar_t can only be found on Windows, isn't it? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17615> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
