I tried this test on parrotbench (b0.py in particular) and I'm not sure I could distinguish an improvement over the noise (best case was about 5%). The variability is pretty high on my box (dual amd64 opertons, ubuntu gcc 4.1.2-ish). At first it seemed a bit slower with the original patch which uses unsigned ints. I tried changing to unsigned longs. It seemed a little better, though not sure if it was really due to the change. I think unsigned longs should be used for 64-bit boxes.
Did you use a benchmark/program that is open source? I don't know that I have anything decent to test this with. Raymond probably does though. Also what platform did you test on? |
