Hello. I'm trying to make a benchmark suite to evaluate different GC implementations. I'm looking for trivial benchmarks and full real-life programs. If you have something like that or if you are interested in more details about what I'm looking for, please read the following link: http://proj.llucax.com.ar/blog/dgc/blog/post/-1382f6a3 Thank you. -- Leandro Lucarella (luca) | Blog colectivo: http://www.mazziblog.com.ar/blog/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A veces quisiera ser un barco, para flotar como floto siendo humano, y no hundirme como me hundo

Leandro Lucarella:Hello. I'm trying to make a benchmark suite to evaluate different GC implementations. I'm looking for trivial benchmarks and full real-life programs. If you have something like that or if you are interested in more details about what I'm looking for, please read the following link:This topic was discussed more than one time by me too. A gentle person here even has written a patch for the GC to solve one of the performance problems I did find (I think such patch was never accepted, I don't know why). I think D deserves a benchmark suite to test "everything". Haskell implementations have several of them. Inside here you can find 3 tests of the GC (gc1, gc2 and gc3) (one of them is the binary tree test you already have seen many times): http://www.fantascienza.net/leonardo/js/slow_d.zip Thy are tiny programs: I think a test suite has to contain both tiny and longhish programs, because the shorter ones are able to spot troubles in a more definite way, and the longer ones are able to spot less specific troubles. (The gc1 benchmark is the one partially fixed by that GC patch). Bye, bearophile

Leandro Lucarella:I've just tested it and it seems to work great (it even improves the performance of other mini benchmarks I've collected).But I have found some situations where it leads to a bit slower performance (no, I don't remember how/where now). So it deserves a lot of testing. Regarding the D GC, I'd like it to be more precise (no need for it to be fully precise). Bye, bearophile

I'll have check it out sometime, maybe I'll figure out why my app uses more memory then I think it should.
