How are you accelerating Excel so much, in a way that Microsoft wouldn't have thought about? No trashing, I'm just curious, and the website doesn't tell much apart from "demolishing the bottlenecks".
- karamazov 12y agoWe wrote a static optimizer for spreadsheets - this looks at the entire sheet and reduces computational complexity where it can. Excel's built-in functions are optimized to run fast individually, not to work in concert. (Also, some of them are just slow for no good reason.)
- Artemis2 12y agoThat's an interesting approach, thank you!
