Constantly. Data ingestion/processing run each loop. Total main
runtime to results is now 20 seconds at most for a single iteration
of the entire program, but it is constantly pulling that data/running
it and updating the display each time. So it was a *massive*
improvement - leaning more on native data structures than the
textbook clean implementation. Can't really say much more
beyond that as it's a current employer project, but just one of
the many examples of optimization that should be thought of
and/or considered instead of just relying on the compiler.
VSI probably has a lot of big easy wins like this coming in the
future, but went with a "textbook" / "robust" POC-level implementation
first. I suspect there are possibly a lot of gains to be had, from
source-level optimization/testing/profiling/etc.
