I was using 3.0.6 actually (I'd downloaded it to make sure that it wasn't our extension of groovysh that was causing some difference). But to be sure, I just retested it on 3.0.6 and 2.5.13. I built a 500 line script of "addition". For 2.5.13 I got:
groovy:000> start = System.currentTimeMillis() ===> 1603105239050 groovy:000> 1 + 10 + groovy:001> 1 + 10 + groovy:002> 1 + 10 + groovy:003> 1 + 10 + groovy:004> 1 + 10 + groovy:005> 1 + 10 + groovy:006> 1 + 10 + ... groovy:495> 1 + 10 + groovy:496> 1 + 10 + groovy:497> 1 + 10 ===> 5478 groovy:000> System.currentTimeMillis() - start ===> 1193 and on 3.0.6 I got: groovy:000> start = System.currentTimeMillis() ===> 1603105244825 groovy:000> 1 + 10 + groovy:001> 1 + 10 + groovy:002> 1 + 10 + groovy:003> 1 + 10 + groovy:004> 1 + 10 + groovy:005> 1 + 10 + groovy:006> 1 + 10 + ... groovy:495> 1 + 10 + groovy:496> 1 + 10 + groovy:497> 1 + 10 ===> 5478 groovy:000> System.currentTimeMillis() - start ===> 31876 On Mon, Oct 19, 2020 at 6:40 AM Daniel Sun <sun...@apache.org> wrote: > > Please try 3.0.6+, we have tuned the performance a lot. > > Cheers, > Daniel Sun > On 2020/10/16 18:58:28, Stephen Mallette <spmalle...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I happened to be testing some issues related to this pull request I > > submitted the other day: > > > > https://github.com/apache/groovy/pull/1405 > > > > In testing between groovy 2.5.x and 3.x I've noticed a considerable > > performance difference when pasting long multi-lined scripts. 2.5.x is > > quite quick to accept the input whereas 3.x seems to slow more and more > as > > additional lines are consumed.
