Was there some other program consuming CPU, like a misbehaving Ubuntu service that wasn't in CentOS? I love short benchmarks like this as I can disassemble the resulting binary and ensure that the compiled instructions match my expectations, and the compiler hasen't messed with it. ## 6. include <sys/time.h>

With entrance into the industry being so easy and lack of proper benchmarking (Note: this is somewhat contradictory to point 2, but more on that later) around what makes a good designer, software engineer, or product manager, we’re forced to face the facts that it’s a recipe for poor quality products. Stay tuned!

When you own all of the code then this may involve some back of the envelope estimates, competitive benchmarking, or intuition tuned by experience. Sometimes the most important piece of information you can have when trying to make some process faster is just knowing that it could be faster.

Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.
