Let NI Benchmark Your Code and Help Us Make LabVIEW Faster

Elijah_K
Active Participant

In the world of large application development, performance is often critical.  Over the years, our investment in the LabVIEW compiler has aimed to ensure that most users don't have to spend time and effort worrying about how to improve the speed of the code or the utilization of memory (although you can, of course).  The LabVIEW compiler is good at identifying ways to optimize code and reduce the amount of required memory, but we're always trying to make it better...

The LabVIEW development team is actively working on improvements to the compiler that could make significant increases in execution speed, but we need the help of our users, and especially those of you developing large applications.  We need real-world applications from customers to benchmark so that we can understand how the changes we're making impact the execution performance.  Of course, one of the advantages for participants is that we can focus on any corner cases or areas of your application that you would like to see improved.

Please, if you have an application or an example you would like us to benchmark, contact me directly at Elijah.Kerry@ni.com.  Of course, your code would be used strictly for benchmarking purposes and would not be shared or reproduced externally under any circumstances. 

We can't wait to hear from you!
