[section:numeric_performance Performance of Numeric Generators]

[section:int_performance Comparing the performance of a single int_ generator]

These performance measurements are centered around default formatting of a 
single `int` integer number using different libraries and methods. 
The overall execution times for those examples are compared below. We compare
using `sprintf`, C++ iostreams, __boost_format__, and __karma__.

For the full source code of the performance test please see here:
[@../../workbench/karma/int_generator.cpp int_generator.cpp]. All the
measurements have been done by executing `1e7` iterations for each 
formatting type (NUMITERATIONS is set to `1e7` in the code shown below).

[import ../../workbench/karma/int_generator.cpp]

Code used to measure the performance for `ltoa`:

[karma_int_performance_ltoa]

Code used to measure the performance for standard C++ iostreams:

[karma_int_performance_iostreams]

Code used to measure the performance for __boost_format__:

[karma_int_performance_format]

Code used to measure the performance for __karma__ using a plain character buffer:

[karma_int_performance_plain]

The following table shows the overall performance results collected 
while using different compilers. All times are in seconds measured for `1e7`
iterations (platform: Windows7, Intel Core Duo(tm) Processor, 2.8GHz, 4GByte RAM). 
For a more readable comparison of the results see this 
[link spirit.karma.int_performance figure].

[section:double_performance Comparing the performance of a single double_ generator]

These performance measurements are centered around default formatting of a 
single `double` floating point number using different libraries and methods. 
The overall execution times for those examples are compared below. We compare
using `sprintf`, C++ iostreams, __boost_format__, and __karma__.

For the full source code of the performance test please see here:
[@../../workbench/karma/double_performance.cpp double_performance.cpp]. All the
measurements have been done by executing `1e6` iterations for each 
formatting type (NUMITERATIONS is set to `1e6` in the code shown below).

[import ../../workbench/karma/double_performance.cpp]

Code used to measure the performance for `sprintf`:

[karma_double_performance_printf]

Code used to measure the performance for standard C++ iostreams:

[karma_double_performance_iostreams]

Code used to measure the performance for __boost_format__:

[karma_double_performance_format]

The following code shows the common definitions used by all __karma__ performance
measurements as listed below:

Code used to measure the performance for __karma__ using a plain character buffer:

[karma_double_performance_plain]

The following table shows the overall performance results collected 
while using different compilers. All times are in seconds measured for `1e6`
