This is an issue many people have mentioned in several places (channel, BWAPI
issues tracker, etc).
Some tips to increase an application's performance:
- Use inline/intrinsic functions.
- Use basic types(char,bool,int) instead of stl containers, string, etc.
- Use "non-safe" intrinsic functions (memcpy, memcmp, etc).
- Optimize project settings for speed, use fast floating point model, etc.
- Use __fastcall where applicable.
- Move the most accessed structure members to (or near) the top.
Advanced performance:
- Use unsigned aligned types (on a 32-bit system "unsigned __int32" and on a 64-bit system "unsigned __int64").
- Unfold application loops. Instead of "for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) someval[i]++;" you would write "someval[0]++; someval[1]++; someval[2]++;"
- Use one big function instead of several smaller ones.
These are just suggestions I thought of at the top of my head, there are
probably some others.
