I did a quick benchmark on linux with gcc 4.9.1/clang 3.4.2, and it looks like std::vector is actually faster than CUtlVector when inserting 100000 elements: CUtlVector: 9021 µs std::vector: 4456 µs It's faster as well when removing the first 1000: CUtlVector: 88 µs std::vector: 39 µs
It may have been true 10 years ago that Valve's STL was faster than the system's one, but I doubt it is today. 2014-07-19 18:12 GMT+02:00 Jorge Rodriguez <bs.v...@gmail.com>: > This may not convince you to use it but in fact valves template library is > faster than STL.
