./devel/ocaml-bigstringaf, Bigstring intrinsics and fast blits based on memcpy/memmmove

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.9.0nb1, Package name: ocaml-bigstringaf-0.9.0nb1, Maintainer: jaapb

The OCaml compiler has a bunch of intrinsics for Bigstrings, but they're not
widely-known, sometimes misused, and programs that use Bigstrings are slower
than they have to be. And even if a library got that part right and exposed the
intrinsics properly, the compiler doesn't have any fast blits between Bigstrings
and other string-like types.

This library implements them.

Log message:
More build fixes for mef@

Upon further investigation, mef@ was right and the problem was in
make being called through dune.

Log message:
Build fixes for devel/ocaml-bigstringaf. Revbump.

The earlier fixes by mef@ (using make) don't solve the problem properly,
since the Makefile only calls dune anyway. However, it does so with
different parameters, most notably not using the -j parameter (leaving
dune to autodetect the number of jobs). That (and the fact that I can't
reproduce the problem) suggests to me that parallel building is the culpit.
I've disabled it for now and will file a bug upstream.
