[cl-bench-devel] [patch] refactor files/arrays.lisp to make runs specifiable in tests.lisp
by Andreas Fuchs 16 Apr '09

Hi there, arrays.lisp is the odd benchmark group out when it comes to specifying the number of runs: It has optional RUNS arguments in the defuns in files/arrays.lisp. That makes it a bit of a pain to keep the run numbers in sync with run times on modern machines. Also, it means these benchmarks keep their setup code inside the benchmark function: not a good thing. The attached patch aims to fix this by defining a cl-bench.arrays::bench-<something>-setup function that initializes the arrays bound in a LET form surrounding the actual benchmark defun. At least in my limited setup, it caused a slight reduction of test run length variances, and it makes things a lot easier to maintain. Cheers, -- Andreas Fuchs, (http://|im:asf@|mailto:asf@)boinkor.net, antifuchs
