Summary

In this chapter, we looked into the topic of profiling. We used a manual approach and specialized tools—profilers—to find the slowest part of a simple program. With this, we have confirmed the results of our analysis of the SlowCode program from the previous chapter.

In the next chapter, I’ll briefly return to the topic of selecting the correct algorithm for the job. With a few examples, I’ll show you how an algorithm can make or break a program’s performance.
