Changes from Version 5 to Version 6 |
=================================== |
-Removed dead code from the RayTrace benchmark and changed the Splay |
-benchmark to avoid converting the same numeric key to a string over |
-and over again. |
+Removed dead code from the RayTrace benchmark and fixed a couple of |
+typos in the DeltaBlue implementation. Changed the Splay benchmark to |
+avoid converting the same numeric key to a string over and over again |
+and to avoid inserting and removing the same element repeatedly thus |
+increasing pressure on the memory subsystem. |
+ |
+Furthermore, the benchmark runner was changed to run the benchmarks |
+for at least a few times to stabilize the reported numbers on slower |
+machines. |
