>"In other words, high-performance code should ideally run so fast that any further improvement in the code would be pointless.
And then define pointless, to make a quantified decision on optimization you should use a performance model. Common model is the roofline model. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roofline_model
My comment was to the absurdity of having a trail for a 98 year old man. As I get from your emotional involvement in this case, you come from the region? As you then probably know, in one country the SS (local) are among many considered heroes, in the neighbour country criminals. Elements of the local SS units was after the war taken over by the CIA(Gehlen Organization). And was waging guerilla war against the soviets. There successor units are presently fighting in the eastern Ukraine and are US allies (Right sector and others)..
While I personally is against dragging old people in front of courts 70 years after the alleged crimes (polish or German), at list the Polish do not discriminate.
And the polish killed their fare share of German civilians.. It's a reason that statute of limitations is considered a part of a civilized justice system. Sometimes letting the past be the past and move on is a good thing.
I did not watch you link, but many modern chemical weapons are binary compounds. Meaning the two compounds has to be mixed to get the final weapon. This makes leaking etc, not as big problem as leaking of actual chemical weapons...
"Several states have reported attempted scans of their computer systems".. I don't find it likely that the Russians have mastered port scanning technology, this bears all the hallmarks of the hacker 4chan!
>That population would be below the level necessary to maintain genetic diversity. At least in NZ, the Kiwis have the decency to say that they want a species eliminated outright.
The Norwegian wolf population is a common population with the Swedish population. The total is something like 400 wolfs. (For the record I support a robust wolf population.)
Not looked at OPs code, but if you build this stuff how a compiler book tells you to... The front end of a interpreter and a compiler is the same. You build a AST, if you interpret you well interpret that. If you have a compiler, the AST is turned into the target language, in most cases asm. The front end is the scanner/Lexer, the parser and most likely semantic analyser. So to answer you question :), if you make a non optimizing compiler, turning the AST into asm is trivial. The hard part of making compilers is the optimization. Most of the front end you do not need to write actually! There are compiler-compilers for that.
This being Iceland everyone knows that the world was created by the Gods ,emphasis on the s, not God, so stupid question.
But on a more serious note the Norse creation myth is actually interesting:
That would be the rational thing to do, but you assumes Wright is sane. Witch he probably is not.
Also has someone look into the claim that he has the 17. fastest Super Computer? This things draw a loot of power (4,499.87 kW he claims) and produces a loot of heat. You cant hide it in your mothers basement.., local authorities will know about it. So will the power company! So there should be a paper trail there? (also SGI denied selling him the system)
Wright's alleged system, was 15. now 17. fastest in the world: http://www.top500.org/system/178468
The Tesla K40 has peak double performance of ~1.4 TFLOPS. It has 64 DP cores, the warp scheduler can schedule four warps per smx per cycle. It can therefore have two warps executing double instructions at the same time. But the number is not very interesting, the memory bandwidth on the other hand is, a GK110 has 288GB/s, take you code, get it's arithmetic intensity and you have a upper bound for your performance, assuming you are memory bound of course.

So no more Hash functions I guess, better store those passwords in clear text. Also encryption is the key to any form of distributed system where you have misbehaving actors.., you know like the internet..
