[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #50561] 350X slower code for eps() written in C++ rather than an m-file

[Rik]

Update of bug #50561 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Fixed

Follow-up Comment #3:

>From earlier benchmarking, switching to using a pointer from data() will get
about 10% improvement.  However, it is also less understandable code so I
generally only made that change in liboctave.

However, I did check in an additional cset here which cleans up the eps
implementation.  As long as we are using abs() which works for complex or real
entries, there is no longer any need to call the C++ function fabs().  It
didn't really save much in execution time, but it is more tidy.  See
