Please provide a magic trick that will assign programs to "strict categories" in a way that no one will dispute :-) > … straightforward, idiomatic code… Even with tiny programs, once you ask for "idiomatic code" things stop being straightforward: different languages do things differently — https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/performance/simple.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/... > … hand-written SIMD… One approach is to filter those programs into their own section — hand-written vector instructions | "unsafe". Another is to use source code size as a proxy — https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/performance/nbody-gz.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...
