Five hours and ten minutes of 99% CPU utilization to execute on the 749 character string. [Eek!] [Eek!] If I shorten my code by 15 characters, my score would be 231 but the execution time would be greatly extended. On a short string the 15 characters buys me a 300% improvement in performance. But on a long string the work content is much greater. I am not sure how long it would run. [Confused]

Now that is interesting [Eek!]

5 hours? I wonder what the fastest solution is for the 700+ charcter string?

I think I really need to get going on the extended stats.

Five hours ??? Using the performance script you sent me Howard, and using the 749 length sting, the algorithm im using takes 7 SECS (the entire running time)!!!

KiXtart Golf Score
Tournament = KiXtart Golf: Burrows-Wheeler Transform
Start (Date/Time) = 2002/12/22 12:01:21
Finish (Date/Time) = 2002/12/22 12:01:28
KiXGolf Result = passed
KiXGolf Score = 267

The actual Decoder UDF itself takes about 441 msecs How come so long ???

So obviously this is the case of smaller code but huge performance penalty ?

Maybe we used different methodologies to solve the problem. Maybe I'm am just an idiot. [Wink] Regardless of the reason, I still have a better score. [Razz]

Nevertheless, Howard still has the lead with a KiXGolf score of 231. Of course, that assumes that his algorithm will actually finish the long string by December 29 [Wink]

Don't know if I can squeeze out another 20. But I'll give it a whirl.

KiXGolf Score = 251

Alright, I'm throwing in the towel. I can't trim off anymore code.

I Think that the xmas present from Ruud is improved performance

I’m not in contest.
My score is 270, and i don’t intend to improve it (cannot) [Wink]

I just took this as a chance to compare the performance of the newer KiX version:

String lenght: 218

Time for KiX 4.11 to complete: 1:59

Time for KiX 4.12 to complete: 1:39

Time for KiX 4.20 to complete: 1:01

So if not for other reasons, you should upgrade to the latest KiX version for speed.

I believe I’m following the same path as Howard (slow, but the job is done)
This was just a great opportunity to compare the different KiX versions for speed.

Howard: Score = 231, i’m getting curious
Shawn: 7 seconds, i’m getting even more curious

Just in case somebody thinks about it. As KiXtart 4.20 beta 1 is public you are of course free to use it.

Jens, this is a late call,

Are you sure ?

This allows two more buildin functions and an improved Join():
  • AScan()
  • IIf()
  • Join() has extra parameter
It would be nice to se the scripts before 4.20 was allowed and after.

I didn't expect v4.20 to go public that fast. however, any public KiXtart version is allowed. KiXtat 4.20 alpha 1 was excluded since it was not public (sounded more like it leaked out). Anyway, there more than enough time to work on the code.

The private coding phase will end on Sunday, December 29, 3pm EST and the public coding phase will end Sunday, January 5, 3pm EST.

Wow! [Eek!] [Eek!] [Cool]

I just run my code on 4.20B1 and Wow! Execution time on the 749 byte string went from 5 hours 10 minutes to 2 hours 27 minutes.

Good job Ruud.
