Doug,
Following up my previous message, I have run the tests with Boost 1.32.0 and
can see what you mean about a drastic improvement. The full set of figures
are:
VC8.0 GOF Observer: 109
VC8.0 Signals 1.33.0: 6203
VC7.1 GOF Observer: 78
VC7.1 Signals 1.32.0: 112109
It's interesting that the Observer pattern is actually slower with VC 8.
