Well, I received two sets of speedup sources - one from ucbvax!cogsci!jsilva
and a second from hutch at hubcap.clemson.edu (gatech!hubcap.clemson.edu!hutch)
and I built compress with the two of these upgrades (one at a time, of
course; the two speedups replace the same routine) and then I compressed
a copy of /xenix and a 500K text file with each.
Results:
file straight compress +jsilva +hutch
/xenix 3.2s 4.8s 3.7s
500K text 4.9s 5.0s 5.1s
Now, I don't know if I did something funny, but I've been at this kind
of stuff for a while, and I don't think I missed anything.
So, has anyone else tried these "speed-ups" out yet? What results did
you get? For me, obviously, I am staying with the distribution version!
