[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #61912] Slow performance of complex()

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #61912 (project octave):

So, the original test case was unfair to complex().  The code was


z = complex (0, val);
OR
z = i*val;


In the multiplication situation I wasn't creating a real part while complex
had to deal with that even though the value was 0.  A proper comparison is


z = 0 + i*val;


Nevertheless, on my machine the vector has to be pretty big, ~5,500, before
complex is faster.
