当我在C ++中运行程序时，它比使用Mex函数的MATLAB调用的相同程序运行得慢。
我尝试了一些示例代码来测试这个，这证实了我的怀疑：
使用C ++：
#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctime>
void process(int a[10000], int b[10000]) {
const int dim[2] = {1, 10000};
int barData[20000];
clock_t begin = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < dim[1]; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
barData[j] = a[i];
barData[j] = b[i];
}
}
clock_t end = clock();
double elapsed_secs = double(end - begin) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("%f\n", elapsed_secs);
}
int main() {
int a[10000], b[10000];
process(a,b);
return 0;
}
使用Mex功能：
#include <stdio.h>
#include "mex.h"
void process(const mxArray *first, const mxArray *second) {
int* a = (int *)mxGetData(first);
int* b = (int *)mxGetData(second);
const int *dim = mxGetDimensions(first);
const int dims[2] = {1,dim[1]*2};
mxArray* bar = mxCreateNumericArray(2, dims, mxINT64_CLASS, mxREAL);
int* barData = (int*)mxGetData(bar);
clock_t begin = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < dim[1]; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
barData[j] = a[i];
barData[j] = b[i];
}
}
clock_t end = clock();
double elapsed_secs = double(end - begin) / CLOCKS_PER_SEC;
printf("%f\n", elapsed_secs);
}
void mexFunction(int nlhs, mxArray *plhs[], int nrhs, const mxArray *prhs[]) {
process(prhs[0], prhs[1]);
}
从MATLAB中调用它如下：
mex test.cpp -output foo
foo(rand(1,10000), rand(1,10000))
Mex函数给出~0.012s，而C ++代码给出0.108s。趋势量表也适用于更大的数组大小。 为什么会这样，有没有办法让C ++代码以Mex函数速度运行？
答案 0 :(得分：1)
正如@Praetorian在上面的评论中所述，您可能没有对C ++代码进行优化。
以下是代码的LLVMIR（伪程序集）没有优化的内容：

P.S。：写下来会更加惯用：
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <ctime>
using std::vector;
void process(vector<int> a, vector<int> b) {
const pair<int,int> dim = {1, 10000};
vector<int> barData(20000,0);
clock_t begin = clock();
for (int i = 0; i < dim.second; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
barData[j] = a[i];
barData[j] = b[i];
}
}
clock_t end = clock();
std::cout << double(end-begin)/CLOCKS_PER_SEC << '\n';
}
int main() {
vector<int> a(10000, 0), b(10000,0);
process(a,b);
return 0;
}
