Speed question

[Nitr0-G]

Hi. More of a dumb question, but I'm wondering by what architectural feature iced outperforms zydis decode by so many times(3x speed difference) on these benchmarks? https://github.com/athre0z/disas-bench

Is the iced speed directly greater due to less information about instructions and this benchmark can be considered invalid in some way?

wow iced is unbelievably fast. I wonder how too

Not a dumb question at all, but probably something you should as the iced dev 😅

I never looked at the iced architecture, but yes, I assume it's largely because of more efficient structs and a little bit of a Rust bonus here and there.

Let me know if you find out more!
