I’m aging myself, but ~17 years ago I was in San Diego for a conference. There was a table level competition to see who could write the fastest program in 20 minutes (we were doing a full text search of a ‘giant’ 5g file). One of the guys at the table wrote some SPARC assembly to optimize character matching that was a hotspot like he was speaking French. Ah good times. |
