I am coding with Python again. I like it that the code is concise and clear. But also that the performance is not bad.
I wrote Lucky Numbers in Clojure and Python. When calling with 1E7 Clojure takes 12 seconds and Python 8 seconds. When calling it with 1E8 Clojure takes all 4/8 cores and gets an out of memory. Python takes one core and is finished after 888 seconds. When I call the Python version with 1E9 it is killed after 27 seconds. I get a message Killed and the error code is 137. Probably also an out of memory. When I do that the computer is freezed a few times. That is a little less nice. Does not happen with Clojure when it gets an out of memory. -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
