Octane - Yes. I’ve only specialized 3 functions, but there are mesurable increases in crypto, deltablue, richards, earley-boyer and regexp, which all to some extent use these function. Nothing world beating, but definitely 10-15% on some of them even after compensating from standard deviation. Nothing else seems to have regressed.
When it comes to the release process, trust me, it’s well regulated and extremely peer reviewed. /M On 23 Sep 2014, at 13:25, Thomas Wuerthinger <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes, very agile.
