Speed Test: std::Vector vs Array
Most recently I have been working on a multithreaded ray tracer in order to port it to CUDA so I am not using any recursion. The first step is implementing the ray tracer without using any acceleration structure. So I simply test a ray with all the objects in a scene thus I needed to decide using whether an array or a vector.
As the current code strongly relies on the data structure I am using, I wanted to test the iteration speed of std::vector versus array.
Here is the code I used for testing.
