Delphi 2009 – StringPerformance Redux
[Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes] It looks like I may have jumped the gun with my conclusions from the previous exercise to benchmark string performance in Delphi 2009. Following a useful exchange in the comments with Kryvich I corrected a small discrepancy in the tests and made some changes to the performance testing subsystem within the SmokeTest framework. I then re-ran my string performance benchmarks with some significant – and more encouraging – differences in the results.
