I ran two tests which perform the same operation: Add N random numbers. Test_1 uses an int on the stack, Test_2 uses an int on the heap. Surprisingly, on my machine Test_1 runs at around 945ms, Test_2 runs around 915ms (while timings may vary, the difference is very consistent and noticeable). What would explain such a significant difference? I used g++ with -O2 and -O3.
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <chrono>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
constexpr int N = 100000000;
int x = 0; // TEST_1
//int* p = new int; //TEST_2
auto start_time = chrono::high_resolution_clock::now();
for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i)
{
x += rand(); //TEST_1
//*p += rand(); // TEST_2
}
auto end_time = chrono::high_resolution_clock::now();
cout << x << endl; // TEST_1
//cout << *p << endl; //TEST_2
cout << "Time: ";
cout << chrono::duration_cast<chrono::milliseconds>(end_time - start_time).count() << endl;
}
