Comparison of how fast Numba's autovectorization can achieve with respect to Intel C vector intrinsics. Read my blog post for more details on my experience working with Numba! https://laurenar.net/posts/python-simd/
Benchmarked 2 different programs to examine how logical complexity impacts performance.
- Sum of all elements in an array
- Sum of elements in array if element >= 100
Each program runs over a length 65546 integer array. Times are averaged over 1000s of iterations.
