Making my debug build run 100x faster so that it is finally usable
Read OriginalThe article describes the author's journey optimizing the startup hash verification in a C-based torrent client. Facing slow debug builds, they explore and benchmark several SHA1 implementations: a basic non-SIMD version, an SSE SIMD version, one using Intel's SHA extensions, and OpenSSL's assembly. The goal is to make the debug build usable by leveraging modern CPU features for massive performance gains in a real-world technical project.
