Thanks alot for this work on an alternative array implementation! It's awesome! It's one of some challenges to use elm for my needs (scientific programming), with blocking UI on long computation, and handling natively some binary data types (eg. for image manipulations). A few words regarding your questions: 1) Can the benchmarks be improved? Could there be one example at a very different scale? For example, I'm manipulating scientific data for my work which tend to hold many thousands values (like images). Would be nice to see how the different implementations scale. >From the results point of view, it's very important to have an idea of the standard deviation of statistical results (or box plots, or similar). If a value oscilates between 10 and 1000000, there is no point giving only it's mean or median value. 2) Are people getting similar results as I have? Not tested yet but starred your repo to come back later. I've been pausing my elm coding lately. 3) Has anyone encountered performance issues with lists, and if so, do you have an example? No, not for typical small size lists used here and there. 4) Have you been confused by Lists and Arrays? What could be improved to reduce that confusion? No, but I've been needing to do some gymnastic between lists, arrays and dicts for different features specific to each. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
