rindolf | fijal: i've ran it 100 times now - same results - as expected |
fijal | rindolf: what's "same result" anyway? |
fijal | I meant specifically 100 times in the same process and ignore the first few (warmup) |
rindolf | fijal: ah |
rindolf | fijal: i ran it from the shell |
fijal | warmup has much higher variability |
fijal | yeah that does nothing - you are measuring essentially the equivalent of "how long does it take to run gcc" |
rindolf | fijal: thing is there are caches |
fijal | which is both very unpredictable |
fijal | then you have to clean the caches |
rindolf | fijal: ok |
rindolf | fijal: well, whatever - i've got better things to do |
rindolf | fijal: like handling https://bitbucket.org/blog/sunsetting-mercurial-support-in-bitbucket |
fijal | heh |
fijal | well, then I don't understand what is your problem to be honest - why did you come to ask questions here in the first place? |
fijal | I'm happy to help and explore how things work and explain why you are getting strangely seeming results, but if you are not willing to play along than you are just wasting my time here |
rindolf | fijal: ok, this was a minor annoyance that seemed noteworthy but not too critical |
* mattip | will try to remember "I've got better things to do" response for the next time rindolf asks for help |
rindolf | mattip: heh, good burn |
rindolf | "pypy ran 'rm -fr ~' due to a bug" "i've got better things to do than to fix it" |
rindolf | joking aside - i really like pypy - so thanks all |
rindolf | on #perl6 we were joking that the reason it is so fast is due to alicorn magic |
rindolf | fijal: well maybe i'll try |
rindolf | fijal: https://paste.debian.net/1096980/ - a bit better after removing |
rindolf | fijal: is my approach sound? |
ronan | rindolf: the difference between the two is most probably below the noise level |
rindolf | ronan: yes |
ronan | rindolf: check out https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3133876 |
rindolf | ronan: open access - nice |
rindolf | bye all, killing xfce for benchmarking something else (not pypy) and sorry if i was rude |
