Code alignment test

I think task switching plays its role... time to time;)

Oooh, just thought of a cool idea. Make a browser plugin which adds a new right-click command to selected text: Assemble Text. :) That would make testing stuff here very fast and easy.

Mark,
It seems we two are always in concert, you come up the an idea and I expound on it.  We ought to at least 'date'.  :bg

Anyway, an easier way to do what you are thinking about (a very good idea, BTW) is to use WBrowser and just code it into the source which is available.

well alignment on new cpus isnt possible, i know it by testing by jpg decompressor on my xp1700+
i optimize code remove few instructions and its slower due align of rest changed. i tried to force some places with adding align but it doesnt help in most cases. its like random. also with testing loops you should always skip 1st, due there is too big difference, code isnt cached yet and its big slowdown, counting time and ticks from second gives more stable results. offcourse to test we need realtime priority kill all other task and console has to be fullscreen in text mode, ticks and ms are lower. and also stable, due windows takes too much time to render text on screen.

Human,
I think you may be right 'and' wrong.  Remember, please, that if you optimize the code and then remove a few instructions?

Sorry Paul, but I'm already taken. :toothy

It's quite easy to do, as long at Javascript/VBScript settings will let you access the file system. You make an HTML file with a script in it, place a registry key in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\<plugin name here> and set the default to the HTML file.

If I get a chance I might have a play with it :U

Cheers,

That would be great, but I have not seen, code here complete enough, for that to be useful.
