Gregory Szorc's Digital Home | Surprisingly Slow
I have an affinity for performance optimization and making software as efficient as possible. Over the years, I've encountered specific instances and common patterns that make software or computers slow. In this post, I'll shine a spotlight on some of them.
Hasnain says:
Lots of insightful points here, I learned a lot about things I didn't expect to be slow, and more in depth lessons for things I knew to be slow.
The compression one in particular was quite enlightening for me.
"I'm titling this post Surprisingly Slow because the slowness was either surprising to me or the sub-optimal practices leading to slowness are prevalent enough that I think many programmers would be surprised by their existence."
