ndBenchmarks #1: ndslice.algorithm vs std.numeric vs std.algorithm

[Ilya Yaroshenko via Digitalmars-d-announce]

Hi all,

There are two first [1] benchmarks for upcoming ndslice.algorithm 
[2].
Recent LDC alpha based on LLVM 3.8 and recent Mir v0.16.0-alpha3 
are required. @fasmath syntax may be changed a little bit and 
will be simplified anyway.

Dot Product:

        ndReduce vectorized = 3 ms, 314 μs
                   ndReduce = 14 ms, 767 μs
numeric.dotProduct, arrays = 7 ms, 260 μs
numeric.dotProduct, slices = 14 ms, 782 μs
               zip & reduce = 74 ms, 280 μs

Euclidean Distance:

                 ndReduce vectorized = 3 ms, 668 μs
                            ndReduce = 14 ms, 595 μs
   numeric.euclideanDistance, arrays = 14 ms, 463 μs
   numeric.euclideanDistance, slices = 14 ms, 465 μs
                        zip & reduce = 73 ms, 678 μs
