From the Knuth paper: "We should forget about small efficiencies, say about 97% of the time: premature optimization is the root of all evil. Yet we should not pass up our opportunities in that critical 3%." It means make it fast in the code that matters, do not try to make it fast in every single line. To say the quote is often misunderstood is the biggest understatement in modern computer science. |
