So I did a little speed test between C and Pd for doing an array-to- array copying. Pd didn't fair so well. Can anyone thing of a better algorithm for copying in Pd?
well, as pd is a purely interpreted language, i doubt that you can improve it without writing a compiler for pd patches ... and even then ... if you'll have overhead for stack management and message handling ... a pure c or even simd implementation will always be way faster ...
Anyone feel like SIMDifiying [arraycopy] (hint hint ;). I suppose
vasp is a SIMD version of [arraycopy].
