Bug ID: 58999 Summary: sizeof ...(T) is very slow than clang Product: gcc Version: unknown Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c++ Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: khurshid.normuradov at gmail dot com This code doesn't compiled well on gcc, but compiled well with clang, and very fast. template< int ... > struct index_sequence{ using type = index_sequence; }; template< typename T> using invoke = typename T :: type ; template< typename T, typename U > struct concate; template< int ...i, int ... j> struct concate< index_sequence<i...>, index_sequence<j...> > : index_sequence< i... , (j + sizeof ... (i ) )... > {}; // \ / // ---------- // I think here is slowly. template< int n> struct make_index_sequence_help : concate< invoke< make_index_sequence_help<n/2>>, invoke< make_index_sequence_help<n-n/2>> > {}; template<> struct make_index_sequence_help <0> : index_sequence<>{}; template<> struct make_index_sequence_help <1> : index_sequence<0>{}; template< int n> using make_index_sequence = invoke< make_index_sequence_help<n> >; int main() { using iseq = make_index_sequence< 1024 > ; // successfull using jseq = make_index_sequence< 1024 * 16 > ; // a lot of compile time!!! using kseq = make_index_sequence< 1024 * 64 > ; // can't compile: memory exhauted!!! }; When I change sizeof...(i) to concrete number 's' - compiled fastest as clang. template< int s, typename T, typename U > struct concate; template< int s, int ...i, int ...j > struct concate< s, index_sequence<i...>, index_sequence<j...> > : index_sequence< i..., ( j + s ) ... > {}; // |_ changed sizeof...(i) to s // and template< int n > struct make_index_sequence_help : concate< n / 2 , invoke< make_index_sequence_help< n / 2 > >, invoke< make_index_sequence_help< n - n/2 > > >{};
