She cheated on me, but I guess we could be friends. -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Nelson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 09, 2006 1:56 PM To: list@epicsol.org Subject: [EPIC] Judy Arrays
Judy Arrays is a modern associative array data structure. http://judy.sourceforge.net/ They could be used as a drop-in replacement for alists, which are unpopular with some people because of the slow insert and delete times. Pro: There is no beating judy for performance Pro: The judy api is not profoundly different from the alist api Pro: Judy is stable (no signficant changes in 2 years) Pro: I could probably make a shim and maintain both going forward Con: Judy is LGPLd, so I can't just drop it in epic5. Con: Which I wouldn't anyways, because Judy is bigger than epic Con: Judy is obscure and not widely deployed Con: Judy requires GNU Make (epic doesn't) What do you all think? _______________________________________________ List mailing list List@epicsol.org http://epicsol.org/mailman/listinfo/list _______________________________________________ List mailing list List@epicsol.org http://epicsol.org/mailman/listinfo/list
