Yeah, interesting :) > pil32: 0.804 sec > emu64: 10.032 sec > > My EmuLisp in Safari: 5.82 sec > My EmuLisp in Chrome: 8.102 sec > My EmuLisp in Chromium: 8.261 sec > > The fibo used in all cases was this: > (de fibo (N) (if (>= 2 N) 1 (+ (fibo (dec N)) (fibo (- N 2))))) > > And the returned value was 3524578. ;-) If I try this on an x86-64 machine having all of them installed (pil32, pil64 and emu64), I get: pil32: 0.89 sec pil64: 0.42 sec emu64: 12.3 sec All quite similar (with the same result, 3524578). I did also tests with the chess program, getting similar relations. You can let play it against itself, with e.g.: $ time ./pil games/chess.l -main -'do 12 (msg (go))' -bye A database stress, however, running 40 concurrent processes hammering data into the database, showed a drop in speed for emu of only a factor of three. Here the bottleneck is in file I/O, locking etc. Cheers, - Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:[email protected]?subject=Unsubscribe
