Benchmark structure for UInt classes#553
Conversation
|
@jsolman I created a sketch of testing classes for resolve the benchmark situation. We can merge this before, so we test lights and your proposal. |
|
@lightszero I created this basic testing structure to improve our discussions on the other thread. Right now, I couldn't see significant improvement on performance... In fact, it was slower on my initial measurements. |

Can you make a method that runs the stopwatch and takes a delegate with code to be benchmarked. The loop would occur in the passed delegate.

Since times are quite short... we need to measure them all together, if I measure one by one, system time will be bigger than timing itself.

No I wasn’t suggesting measure 1 by 1. I was suggesting a benchmark method that takes a delegate. The passed delegate has the code that loops 1 million times all in one call to the delegate.

oh!! nice! it would look better indeed for better isolation.

I guess the tests are ready.. that will also help future decisions in similar subjects. |
|
this is not a good test case. |
|
For benchmarks i ussually use https://benchmarkdotnet.org/articles/overview.html with great results |
|
now result is like this,with 50% equal data Elapsed=00:00:01.1170521 Sum=-1244 |
|
Men, you are all genius. |
|
Nice observation @lightszero! Perhaps 50% equals is a better benchmark indeed. |
|
Please let's keep 1 million maximum... or it breaks my computer :) |
|
Implemented and inlined UInt160 option.... better than pure uint, no loops kkkkkkkkk private unsafe int code3_UInt160CompareTo(byte[] b1, byte[] b2)
{
// LSB -----------------> MSB
// --------------------------
// | 8B | 8B | 4B |
// --------------------------
// 0l 1l 4i
// --------------------------
fixed (byte* px = b1, py = b2)
{
uint* lpxi = (uint*)px;
uint* lpyi = (uint*)py;
if (lpxi[4] > lpyi[4])
return 1;
if (lpxi[4] < lpyi[4])
return -1;
ulong* lpx = (ulong*)px;
ulong* lpy = (ulong*)py;
if (lpx[1] > lpy[1])
return 1;
if (lpx[1] < lpy[1])
return -1;
if (lpx[0] > lpy[0])
return 1;
if (lpx[0] < lpy[0])
return -1;
}
return 0;

I think it is good like this. The idea of having comparisons ensure safety because the results of those 3 tries are compared against each other. |
|
I should have noticed the data wasn’t the same across runs. Nice catch @lightszero |

@igormcoelho did you calculate the amount of RAM used for this test? is not excessive?

Travis should not run this normally. Benchmarks should not be enabled normally in unit tests that run after each commit; there is no benefit also because the test doesn’t fail if the benchmark were to take longer than a threshold.
