Indeed, microbenchmarks like these are surprisingly difficult to write well, and they often end up measuring something other than what the author intends. Microbenchmarks that are extracted from real programs -- e.g. pulling out a "kernel" of hot code, possibly simplified -- are likely to be more useful, though it's still possible to get them wrong too :) Nick _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
