|
|
VC9 SP1 or Ubuntu and compiled with g++ 4.2 and 4.3. For these tests, the same
|
|
player state machine was written using Boost.Statechart, as a <a class="link" href="examples/SCSimple.cpp" target="_top">state machine with only simple states</a>
|
|
and as a <a class="link" href="examples/SCComposite.cpp" target="_top">state machine with a composite
|
|
state</a>. The same simple and composite state machines are implemented with
|
|
MSM with a standard frontend <a class="link" href="examples/MsmSimple.cpp" target="_top">(simple)</a><a class="link" href="examples/MsmComposite.cpp" target="_top">(composite)</a>,
|
|
the simple one also with <a class="link" href="examples/MsmSimpleFunctors.cpp" target="_top">functors</a> and with <a class="link" href="examples/EumlSimple.cpp" target="_top">eUML</a>. As these simple machines need no terminate/interrupt states, no
|
|
message queue and have no-throw guarantee on their actions, the MSM state machines
|
|
are defined with minimum functionality. Test machine is a Q6600 2.4GHz, Vista

64.</p><div class="sect1" title="Speed"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e2795"></a>Speed</h2></div></div></div><p>VC9:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><p>The simple test completes 90 times faster with MSM than with
