C++ Vector Distance Study

VectorDistance

I've built this lib to benchmark different distance measures operations using different vector implementations.

So far you can build this lib using:

• a baseline strategy;
• a baseline strategy with no compiler optimizations;
• Vectors of 128 bits (SSE2)
• Vectors of 256 bits (AVX2)

There's a simple benchmark that can be run after the make execution:

$ ./build/bin/main

Build process

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake -DVECTOR_SIZE={{VECTOR-SIZE}} ..
$ make

Where VECTOR_SIZE can be either auto, auto-no-opt, 128, 256

The original purpose of these libraries was to integrate with Python, to benchmark against other native solutions.

I'm dropping the support in favor of Java's Project Panama.
