For those asleep at 2am: I blogged about Swift in my normal bombastic style which isn’t getting old, nope. http://blog.wilshipley.com/2016/05/pimp-my-code-book-2-swift-and-dynamism.html …

@wilshipley @mpweiher Nice post as usual. Wouldn't rewriting in ObjC also make for better code? Filter map & foreach in ObjC? Not so hard

@phink0 @wilshipley Good point. The BBC system I rewrote from ObjC to Java (WO5) also got significantly better. Had nothing to do with lang.

@mpweiher @phink0 It’s not so hard but also not so fast. Swift is VERY fast and efficient, because it knows the types.

@wilshipley @phink0 [fast] Is this something you expect or something you measured? My measurements to date almost exclusively show opposite.

@mpweiher @wilshipley What am I doing wrong? Swift 6x slower than very naive ObjC filter. XCode7.3.1, [-O], iPhone5Spic.twitter.com/U20uvcRPFj

@phink0 @wilshipley That looks about smack in the middle of the relative slowdowns I have been seeing.

@mpweiher @phink0 @wilshipley That’s very interesting. Have you tried profiling it? Bridging overhead?
