Hi everybody
Im a quite new boost user and I wonder, why C++ Program is so slow.
I wrote a program, and I have the same program in Matlab, I expected that my C++ version is much faster, but its not.
I use matrices, vectors, matrix- and vector proxies. Do some solving and compute calculations with prod, element_div, etc..
Is boost in general slower than matlab, should I use something else?
Id be real happy about any help.
Matlab uses some highly optimized matrix operations libraries (BLAS/ LAPACK for example.) I assume you use Boost uBLAS which is quite a good library but it has nowhere near the amount of investment put into it as does Matlab. That being said, you should post the code. You might be doing something silly like copying vectors in a loop. -- Sohail Somani http://uint32t.blogspot.com
