Summary: 2 programs failed to compile due to type errors (anna, gg). One program did 19% more allocation, a few other programs increased allocation very slightly (<2%). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Program Size Allocs Runtime ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- anna ----- ----- ----- ansi +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 atom +0.00% +0.00% -2.92% awards +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 banner +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 bernouilli -0.23% +0.00% -7.44% boyer +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 boyer2 +0.00% +0.00% 0.01 bspt +0.00% +0.00% 0.02 cacheprof +0.14% +0.00% -9.86% calendar +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 cichelli +0.00% +0.00% +0.99% circsim +0.00% +0.00% -0.93% clausify +0.00% +0.00% 0.01 comp_lab_zift +0.00% +0.00% +1.86% compress +0.00% +0.00% -5.58% compress2 +0.00% +0.00% -7.63% constraints +0.00% +0.00% -9.03% cryptarithm1 +0.00% +0.00% -6.27% cryptarithm2 +0.00% +0.00% 0.03 cse +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 eliza +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 event +0.00% +0.00% -7.04% exp3_8 +0.00% +0.00% -10.84% expert +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 fem +0.35% +1.76% 0.06 fft +0.00% +0.00% 0.08 fft2 +0.00% +0.00% 0.15 fibheaps +0.00% +0.00% 0.08 fish +0.00% +0.00% 0.03 fluid +0.12% +0.04% 0.02 fulsom -0.14% +0.00% -2.10% gamteb +2.47% +0.56% 0.15 gcd +0.00% +0.00% -5.88% gen_regexps +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 genfft +0.00% +0.00% 0.04 gg ----- ----- ----- grep +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 hidden +0.00% +0.00% -12.48% hpg +0.00% +0.00% -7.92% ida +0.00% +0.00% -12.50% infer +0.00% +0.00% 0.13 integer +0.00% +0.00% -9.81% integrate +0.00% +0.00% -5.47% knights +0.19% +0.00% 0.01 lcss +0.00% +0.00% -7.42% life +0.75% +0.00% -16.22% lift +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 listcompr +0.00% +0.00% -9.76% listcopy +0.00% +0.00% -8.33% maillist +0.00% +0.03% 0.06 mandel +0.00% +0.00% +0.00% mandel2 +0.00% +0.00% 0.02 minimax +0.00% +0.00% 0.01 mkhprog +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 multiplier +0.00% +0.00% -10.43% nucleic2 +0.61% (stdout) (stdout) para +0.00% +0.00% -2.51% paraffins +0.00% +0.00% -10.07% parser +0.00% +0.00% 0.06 parstof +0.00% +0.00% 0.01 pic +0.28% +19.27% 0.02 power +0.29% +0.00% -11.62% pretty +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 primes +0.00% +0.00% 0.13 primetest +0.00% +0.00% +0.77% prolog +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 puzzle +0.00% +0.00% -5.03% queens +0.00% +0.00% 0.06 reptile +0.00% +0.00% 0.03 rewrite +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 rfib +0.00% +0.00% 0.04 rsa +0.00% +0.00% 0.06 scc +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 sched +0.00% +0.00% 0.05 scs +0.54% +0.06% -11.14% simple +1.70% +0.00% -4.68% solid +0.00% +0.00% -2.03% sorting +0.00% +0.00% 0.00 sphere +0.06% +0.00% -1.74% symalg +0.00% +0.00% 0.13 tak +0.00% +0.00% 0.02 transform +0.00% +0.00% -7.73% treejoin +0.00% +0.00% -2.70% typecheck +0.00% +0.00% -1.29% veritas +0.12% +0.00% 0.00 wang +0.00% +0.00% -18.99% wave4main +0.00% +0.00% -9.04% x2n1 +0.00% +0.00% -2.84% ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Min -0.23% +0.00% -18.99% Max +2.47% +19.27% +1.86% Geometric Mean +0.08% +0.23% -6.71%
