Speedup C++ code
- by Werner
Hi,
I am writing a C++ number crunching application, where the bottleneck is a function that has to calculate for double:
template<class T> inline T sqr(const T& x){return x*x;}
and another one that calculates
Base dist2(const Point& p) const
{ return sqr(x-p.x) + sqr(y-p.y) + sqr(z-p.z); }
These operations take 80% of the computation time. I wonder if you can suggest approaches to make it faster, even if there is some sort of accuracy loss
Thanks
