- Added comments for the serializer class.
- Added test case for resizing of the indentation string.
- Using std::none_of to check if “.0” needs to be added to
floating-point number.
A lot of small changes to avoid memory allocations:
- The locale is only queried once rather than with every number
serialization.
- The indentation string is recycled between different calls.
- The string escape function avoids a copy if no escaping is necessary.
- The string escape and the space function use a complete switch case
instead of cascaded ifs.
Cachegrind measures some 15% performance improvement.
Treated the size of the range as the number of thousand separators.
This logical error yielded a negative value for written_bytes and
eventually an infinite loop, as written_bytes was converted to an
unsigned value.
The class is currently just a wrapper for an std::ostream and collects
all functions related to serialization. The next step should be
recycling of variables to avoid repetitive initialization for each
recursive dump call.
numtostr now directly writes to a stream. Return value of snprintf is
reused to avoid finding end of string. Cachegrind suggests a 1%
performance increase.
All ‘<<‘ calls have been replaced by write()/put() calls. The
indentation strings needs not to be resized. Cachegrind measures 1%
performance improvement.
Indentation string is recycled to avoid allocations. Comma-separation
in objects does not need an if any more. Cachegrind measures 1%
performance improvement.
Added separate code paths for normal output and pritty-printed output.
This allowed to remove most of the ifs along the way. Benchmarks and
cachegrind suggest a 10% performance improvement.
