76.6% speedup76.6% speedupPosted Oct 27, 2007 21:32 UTC (Sat) by giraffedata (subscriber, #1954)In reply to: Memory part 5: What programmers can do by avassalotti Parent article: Memory part 5: What programmers can do I think it's ambiguous. While it's clear that it's a 427% increase in speed and a 77% decrease in slowness, "speed-up" might refer to either of those, and also to the 77% reduction in execution time. For practical use, I believe per centages of execution time are more useful than per centages of speed because time is the limited resource.
