benchmark
output that I use with some of the
biggest articles on wikipedia and some medium sized ones. It simulates
the actual diff workload with a line based diff first, followed by a
word based diff. The comparison is done between a set of sometimes
distant versions for both the old algorithm as the new one. The
summary in the end concludes that the new implementation is almost 30
times faster.
Faster than what? Then the old PHP DifferenceEngine or then wikidiff2?
Obviously it's going to be tough to beat wikidiff2 with PHP code, unless
it's an *amazing* new algorithm. :)
But our current PHP diff is bad enough on large pages and certain worst
cases that you can DoS your site by loading the RSS feed sometimes, so
improvements to it are welcome!
