From: "gregolsen (Innokenty Mikhailov)" Date: 2012-04-03T20:14:20+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:44110] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6183] Enumerator::Lazy performance issue Issue #6183 has been updated by gregolsen (Innokenty Mikhailov). That's because each time you mapping lazy enumerator another proc objected added to procs array, so in your example you effectively mapping 3 times. I should return new enumerator object rather than modifying existing one while calling lazy map or select (or whatever lazy method). A lot of work should be done to finish this patch: all other lazy methods should be added. Also I'm getting an error while working with big arrays (> 10^4). But if you are all positive about the approach I'll happily proceed and do my best to make this fully work. ---------------------------------------- Bug #6183: Enumerator::Lazy performance issue https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6183#change-25638 Author: gregolsen (Innokenty Mikhailov) Status: Assigned Priority: Low Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) Category: Target version: ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0dev (2012-03-17 trunk 35075) [x86_64-linux] I benchmarked Enumerator::Lazy and that's what I got: user system total real Lazy: 0.690000 0.010000 0.700000 ( 0.733160) Normal: 0.160000 0.010000 0.170000 ( 0.186695) It seems like even with 4 chain links and 3000 elements in initial array, Lazy enumerator is almost 4(!) times slower than the normal case. Instead of performance benefit we've got 4 times performance drawback. See test file attached. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
