Fortunately I don't think I need that kind of function now but it does sound handy to know.

minion: Memo for jmercouris: Because it only removes from the end, whereas subseq can simultaneously remove from the start and from the end.

performance is usually average, but occasionally awful (vs same algorithm in another lang)

Though it will slow down the program a bit, it will show you the slow function calls.

The interface looks like TRACE, use (sb-profile:profile foo bar baz) to profile foo bar and baz, sb-profile:unprofile to unprofile, and (sb-profile:report) to see the report

I don't know how the problem goes, but could you try to generate some input data?

manualcrank: without profiler it is imposible to tell what's going on (unless algorithm sucks)

manualcrank
again, though, direct translation of algo to c++ = 0.06s (like all the other c++ soln's)
6:48:49
shka__
manualcrank: i would generate data, put it in the vector, eleminate read-lines and see how this works then
6:49:18
shka__
he is already reserving proper size of the hash-table so i don't think that realocations are a problem

is there some way to re-use the memory when reading the strings in lisp? (in C I would just use stack-alloced fixed-size arrays for current and previous word)
6:52:14
no-defun-allowed
read-sequence? Still don't think that'd be the bottleneck and you should investigate further.
6:52:22
xantoz
I was thinking that read-line would create lots of transient objects, but I might be wront
6:53:48
shka__
manualcrank: if words are short (8 chars) you probabbly won't come close to C++ anyway but i agree that 1.2s is suspicious
6:56:55
shka__
i you want some words https://github.com/sirherrbatka/cl-data-structures/blob/master/test/files/words.txt

for boolean variable naming, what convention is favored by yourself or the community?

beach: however, I can't imagine myself remembering the spec so well and keeping that in mind

who's maintaining 5am? I've got a feature request resp. bug report: when PARSE-INTEGER reports an error, :START isn't taken into account - so 5am happily reports "no digits in string "1234...""

is there a way to associate compilation in certain buffers to certain SLIME connections?
10:05:05
scymtym
flip214: i see. do you know where that happens? i couldn't immediately find any references to PARSE-INTEGER in 5am's code

flip214: SBCL has both error messages: (parse-integer "12345" :start 5) => "no non-whitespace char…" (parse-integer "12345-" :start 5) => "no digits in string …"
10:23:38
flip214
scymtym: yes, just reproduced that. sorry for the bad error report, that comes from trying to offload things -- my recursion depth was nearly exceeded.
