Hi,
I noticed that the `divides?` function from math/number-theory seems to be
a huge bottleneck for whatever reason.
This seems strange to me, but I figured I'd write to the list to see if
maybe there are trade-offs made that make sense mostly for big integers or
something.
Example with (time):
#lang racket/base
(require (only-in math/number-theory divides?))
(define (divisible-by? x d)
(= (modulo x d)
0))
(module+ main
(time
(for/sum ([x (in-range 3 500000000)])
(if (3 . divides? . x)
x
0))) ; cpu time: 96257 real time: 96166 gc time: 128
(time
(for/sum ([x (in-range 3 500000000)])
(if (x . divisible-by? . 3)
x
0))) ; cpu time: 7277 real time: 7266 gc time: 0
)
