Yes. Have a look at <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/rust.godbolt.org\/z\/O3Uv-Z\">what assembly is generated<\/a>:<\/p>\n<pre><code>example::main:\n  mov eax, 99999999\n.LBB0_1:\n  add eax, -11\n  jne .LBB0_1\n  ret\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>On my PC, this runs about 30 times faster than your original code. <\/p>\n<p>Why does the assembly still contain this loop that is doing nothing? Why isn&#8217;t the compiler able to see that two <code>push<\/code>es are the same as <code>vec![0.0, 1.0]<\/code>? Both very good questions and both probably point to a flaw in LLVM or the Rust compiler. <\/p>\n<p>However, sadly, there isn&#8217;t much useful information to gain from your micro benchmark. Benchmarking is hard, like really hard. There are so many pitfalls that even professionals fall for. In your case, the benchmark is flawed in several ways. For a start, you never observe the contents of the vector later (it is never used). That&#8217;s why a good compiler can remove all code that even touches the vector (as the Rust compiler did above). So that&#8217;s not good. <\/p>\n<p>Apart from that, this does not resemble any real performance critical code. Even if the vector would be observed later, swapping an odd number of times equals a single swap. So unless you wanted to see if the optimizer could understand this swapping rule, sadly your benchmark isn&#8217;t really useful.  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mt24\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>            <span class=\"d-none\" itemprop=\"commentCount\">5<\/span> <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<\/p>\n<p>solved Why is swapping elements of a []float64 in Go faster than swapping elements of a Vec<f64> in Rust? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Could the Rust program be written in an idiomatic way, to execute faster?
