Optimization of programs on C ++. Proven methods of increasing performance

"Rog of abundance of useful tips - timely, sometimes anecdotal and always to the point. A guide showing a new face C ++ ".
- Jerry Tan, senior programmer in The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation
In the modern fast world, the performance of the program is the same important property as its functionality. This practical guide sets out the basic principles of performance, which allow developers to optimize C ++ programs. You will learn how to write a code that embodies the best C ++ design practices works faster and consumes less resources on any computer - whether it is a clock, a phone, a workstation, a supercomputer or a network of servers that covers the entire globe.
The author of the book on several examples of the running code demonstrates how to apply the described principles for gradual improvement of existing programs in order to bring them into compliance with the highest requirements of the customer in relation to performance and throughput. You will appreciate the advice given in this book when you hear from a colleague "cannot be! Who and how managed to do it? "
