Performance and Profiling
To improve a program's performance
you code you have to
to discover bottlenecks and other
areas that can be optimized.
This process is called profiling and can be done
with a profiler or "by hand".
The latter involves
placing timers within the code and running them over and over, to
obtain a profile of how fast or slow specific areas of a program
are executed.
