Subject: [Caml-list] caching results of caml_named_value
Date: Tue, 8 May 2012 17:50:03 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOQwdX3qqXphEx=TJLmMGb1hGZG-ey+O_mcANXb08wzKJKBegQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

There's quite a bit of code involved in each call to caml_named_value.

This includes calling hash_value_name, traversal of the named value
list and a call strcmp for every step of the traversal.

Is it sensible to cache the valued returned by caml_named_value and
sticking it into an array of closures?

The array (block) would be registered as global root.

My use case is caml_named_value being called several times a second,
potentially.

    Thanks, Joel
