STL speed

Hi,
The task was indeed simple. Read 2.000.000 words (average length = 9), sort
them and write it to new file.
I've made this in STL, and it was almost 17 times slower than my previous
"clear-C-code".
I used <vector>, <algorithm>, <iostream> and <algorithm>. Is STL really so
slow?

Thx in adv.
Przemo

p.s. i know that STL uses IntrospectiveSo rt which seems to be good choice, i
suppose that INPUT (cin) is extremaly slow,
and <vector> as a dynamic structure also isn't to fast... any ideas?

There's your problem. VC5 and VC6 had a known buffering issue with ifstreams.
PJ has commented on it, and there is a fix somewhere on the DinkumWare website.

I have tried out PHP 5 for the first time (with assistance from this group -- thanks!). The people I was working with have a site that uses lots of php objects. They are having problems with speed. They had a vague idea that PHP5 has improved handling of objects over PHP4, so it would probably be faster also. In fact it seems slower. We did a few timing loops, in which a a number of objects were created and and members were...

Hi I am fairly new to programming but not as such that I am a total beginner From what I understand C and C++ are faster languages than Python. Is this because of Pythons ability to operate on almost any operating system? Or is there many other reasons why? I understand there is ansi/iso C and C++ and that ANSI/ISO Code will work on any system If this is the reason why, than why don't developers create specific Python Distrubutions...

It seems there are quite a few projects aimed to improve Python's speed and, therefore, eliminate its main limitation for mainstream acceptance. I just wonder what do you all think? Will Python (and dynamic languages in general) be someday close to compiled languages speed? What will be the future of Psyco, Pypy, Starkiller, Ironpython and all the other projects currently on development?

Hello, I have a dll which do some number crunching. Performances (execution speed) are very important in my application. I use VC6 to compile the DLL. A friend of mine told me that in Visual studio 2003 .net optimization were enhanced and that i must gain in performance if I switch to VS 2003 or intel compiler. So I send him the project and he returned a compiled DLL with VS 2003. Result : the VS 2003 compiled Dll is slower than the VC6...

Hi, We use a script here at work that runs whenever someone logs into their machine that logs various bits of information to a database. One of those bits is the CPU's model and speed. While this works in 95% of the time, we have some fringe cases where the only thing returned is the processor name. We use this data to help us decide which PCs need to be updated, so it would be nice to have the processor speed in all cases.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
