thanks a lot for pointing out 'hyperfine' and for providing this somewhat self-defeating plugin.
comparing 0.54-1 to the artifact from the iem pipeline for 618b6325 now, i get the results below. side notes:
- the plugin is present in all cases, but should only affect the last
comparison, i assume
- it's a bit irritating to me that quitting 618b63 is slower via
'-send' flag than through the plugin, but this was obviously caused by outliers (although i got similar results with another 10 runs)
| version | flags | time | |---------|------------------------|-----------------------| | 0.54-1 | -nogui -send "pd quit" | 78.5 ms ± 0.6 ms | | 618b63 | -nogui -send "pd quit" | 77.9 ms ± 1.3 ms | | | | | | 0.54-1 | -send "pd quit" | 327.2 ms ± 5.6 ms | | 618b63 | -send "pd quit" | 2512.9 ms ± 1523.3 ms | | | | | | 0.54-1 | | 396.5 ms ± 4.7 ms | | 618b63 | | 2117.4 ms ± 518.0 ms |

if you want to measure the time until the GUI is fully available, you probably have to use a GUI plugin that quits Pd from the GUI side.
so i went ahead and created the following GUI-plugin named "quitter-plugin.tcl":
after idle {pdsend "pd quit"}now Pd will quit once the GUI has become "idle" (right after startup). which gives me the following stats:
| version | time | |---------|---------------------| | 0.54-1 | 249.9 ms ± 61.8 ms | | 618b63 | 202.3 ms ± 119.3 ms |
so you can see, it is much slower than the naive "-send 'pd quit'" test.
Pd-0.55 is still much faster that 0.54-1, at least for me.
