Description

Description:
BIS fnc codePerformance.png
Measures how much time it takes to execute given expression. Results may vary based on overall performance; use this function to compare alternative scripting approaches rather than to measure specific values. Upon function execution, window with results is opened. The user then has a choice to copy the result into clipboard or not.

This function is using diag_codePerformance command.

Keep in mind that this takes string, and that you can't pass str _code as string because that add's curly braces to the string.

Syntax

Syntax:
[expression, arguments, cycles, display] call BIS_fnc_codePerformance
Parameters:
expression: String - Tested expression
arguments (Optional): Anything - Arguments to pass into the code. Default: []
cycles (Optional): Number - Number of wanted cycles. Default: 10000
display (Optional): Display - Display in which the message window with results will be opened. Use displayNull to disable the window. Default: Current mission display
Return Value:
Number - Average execution time of the expression

Examples

Example 1:
testArray = []; ["testArray = testArray + [1]"] call BIS_fnc_codePerformance; testArray = []; ["testArray set [count testArray, 1]"] call BIS_fnc_codePerformance; testArray = []; ["testArray pushBack 1"] call BIS_fnc_codePerformance; Compare three methods of adding elements into array
