Gutsy move indeed. Though I wonder, what was the development cost in real life cash for gaining those 5% of performance?

- pizlonator 11y ago3 months. Two people working on it (me and @awfulben).
- titzer 11y agoNice work, Fil. Looks cool.
- pizlonator 11y agoThanks! :-) Looking forward to more write-ups about TurboFan!
- MrBuddyCasino 11y agoOk, thats impressive. I'll show myself out.

- bluejekyll 11y agoOut of curiousity, did you look at improving LLVM compile times? I didn't get that out of the article. Awesome write up btw.
- om2 11y agoAs Phil said, the development cost was not that high all things considered. But even if it was - think about the number of user-hours that 5% is leveraged across, and the resulting time savings and battery life savings for those users. It would be worth investing even more than we did for 5%!
- ksec 11y agoConsidering there are now 1Billion Active iOS devices, that 5% saving is huge! I wonder if this will make in time for iOS10.
