Util Hello! Who all is in attendance? 19:30
rurban_ me 19:35
Done: Only studied more hash functions and tables. (this week open addressing and symbolic verification) 19:36
Otherwise mostly B::C work only. Not much time 19:37
And helping rperl
Util Adding to my report: Volunteering to be backup mentor for the Parrot task (improve method signatures) for GSoC 2014. 19:42
rurban_: BTW, the Perl Compiler project was discussed during the dinner after the last Atlanta.pm meeting. 19:43
rurban_ Nice
Util rurban++ , from all of us.
rurban_ Soon with a jit. lightning is my current favorite, better than DynASM. Ditto for parrot but I'm still thinking about it 19:44
Util Excellent!
rurban_ lightning offers the easiest cross-platform support, and all the CPU specific extensions similar to DynASM also (SSE) 19:45
just GC integration might be tricky, but should be doable
lightning comes from smalltalk (GC) afterall, and is used by clisp also (GC) 19:48
rurban Util++ (mentor) 19:50
rurban_ btw. there's a new crazy hash scheme out there: robin hood or backshift: github.com/goossaert/hashmap/blob/...hashmap.cc seems to beat all 19:52
it's open, so fast, very cache friendly, and there's a logical limit of linear collisions. so perfect for everybody. 19:53
Util Thanks for the info; very new to me. 19:54
rurban_ But I still need to time it against a linear collision table with sorted collisions (not a linked list)

rurban_ and the fastest perfect hashing (cmph BMZ) 19:55
Util For lurkers: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table#Ro...od_hashing
rurban_ no, CHD is the fastest, not BMZ
robin hood is a bit similar to the scheme I use in potion/p2, but better and faster 19:56
Hopscotch is also interesting
I need to setup some perf stats and plots 19:57
(esp. for perl5, parrot not so much)
This is very in flux currently. Everybody is switching, not just perl5 19:58
concurrency being the biggest problem (not ours) 19:59
some also add a bloom step to filter out non-existing entries earlier and faster 20:00
Ah yes. I forgot: I found fperrad's repo with his parrot replacement and showed it #perl6. pretty exciting 20:02
really really fast and simple
currently implemented nqp tests: github.com/fperrad/tvmjit/tree/master/t/nqp 20:03
someone created a very very nice language on top of that: shine github.com/richardhundt/shine 20:04
already better than perl6
and much cleaner 20:05
done 20:06
Util Anything else before we adjourn? From anyone? 20:07
OK, then. Meeting adjourned. Thanks! 20:08
