Isnt it best to evaluate the performance of any given AI system and subsytems based upon time or instructions executed to arrive at the most cost effective and optimal AI System?
I seem to prefer the instruction based system performance methodology. Then as platforms and systems change, the instructions usage should remain fairly constant. The reduction of one instruction might be a big big differnce as the system may do that same process billions of times. Can you tell me which, procedural vs declarative is less costly in machine instructions? Are they about the same? Is there much difference in executed code with regard to retriving KR and KB methods?
