Subject: [Caml-list] OT: Java Performance
Date: Thu, 1 May 2003 10:27:28 -0500 (CDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0305011021220.3160-100000@eagle.ancor.com> (raw)
Given the number of performance-related discussions in this maillist of
late, I thought I'd forward this article:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtp04223.html
It's about Java, but I think it's still worthwhile reading for Ocaml
programmers. The lesson to learn here is that performance is tricky- what
you think will obviously be a problem often isn't, and what you think
won't be a problem can be. Make it work correctly first, then measure
performance, then enhance for performance if necessary.
Another comment that applies to both languages is that if it's a glaringly
obvious problem, the compiler people are probably already working on it
(or possibly already solved it).
