make ceylon.language::sum fast #5606

[@quintesse] Hmm I should test how my experimental boxing/unboxing code handles this. Because although it's a clever trick what you are doing here it depends completely on implementation details that could change at any time. |
|
[@jvasileff] I beg to differ.
For the last item, certainly a compiler improvement would be to treat Again, for the last item, boxing logic could be improved such that only the accumulator would need to explicitly be an |

|
[@quintesse] I also beg to differ with your point 3, you don't get to decide what the compiler should always do, that's the compiler's business :) |
|
[@jvasileff] Ok, yeah, I agree that it looks ugly. |

[@quintesse] Sorry, it's not the accumulator that "bothers" me, it's the |

[@quintesse] Just a question @gavinking , but why is this an issue for the compiler? Couldn't the typechecker just immediately simplify a |

[@gavinking] @quintesse No, of course not. |

[@jvasileff] AFAICT, a native implementation would:
But I'm not seeing further optimization opportunities. The second item, while significant for small streams, may also be eliminated with #4505 and #2270 . Some results: for: package sandbox.ceylon.snap.base;

[@gavinking] Just to throw something extra out there, it seems to me that this (slightly ugly) implementation using shared Value sum2<Value>({Value+} values)
given Value satisfies Summable<Value> {
variable value sum = values.first;
variable value first = true;
values.each(void (element) {
if (first) {
sum = element;
first = false;
}
else {
sum+=element;
}
});
return sum;
} |
|
[@gavinking] Scratch that: with a correct implementation it doesn't seem to make much difference. However this implementation does seem to be faster: shared Value sum4<Value>({Value+} values)
given Value satisfies Summable<Value>
=> values.reduce(plus);... at least in some cases. |
|
[@gavinking] Yeah, that makes sense, since there is an optimized implementation of |
|
[@jvasileff] if (is Integer first) {
// unbox; don't infer type Value&Integer
variable Integer sum = 0;
values.each(void (item) {
assert (is Integer item);
Integer unboxed = item;
sum += unboxed;
});
assert (is Value result = sum);
return result;
}but the overhead kills performance for and of course this ugly impl reads the first element twice, so it isn't really an option anyway. But for I wasn't able to see an advantage with |

[@jvasileff] No problem at all. Looks like the approach saved us both some time. |
