<h1>Priority Queue Text <tt>push</tt> Timing Test</h1>
<h2><a name="description" id="description">Description</a></h2>
<p>This test inserts a number of values with keys from an
arbitrary text ([ <a href="references.html#wickland96thirty">wickland96thirty</a> ]) into
a container using <tt>push</tt> . It measures the average time
for <tt>push</tt> as a function of the number of values
pushed.</p>

<h2><a name="purpose" id="purpose">Purpose</a></h2>
<p>The test checks the effect of different underlying
data structures (see <a href="pq_design.html#pq_imp">Design::Priority

<h2><a name="observations" id="observations">Observations</a></h2>
<p>Pairing heaps (<a href="priority_queue.html"><tt>priority_queue</tt></a> with
<tt>Tag</tt> = <a href="pairing_heap_tag.html"><tt>pairing_heap_tag</tt></a>)
are the most suited for sequences of <tt>push</tt> and
<tt>pop</tt> operations of non-primitive types (<i>e.g.</i>
<tt>std::string</tt>s). (see also <a href="priority_queue_text_push_pop_timing_test.html">Priority Queue
Text <tt>push</tt> and <tt>pop</tt> Timing Test</a>.) They are
less constrained than binomial heaps, <i>e.g.</i>, and since
they are node-based, they outperform binary heaps. (See
<a href="priority_queue_random_int_push_timing_test.html">Priority
Queue Random Integer <tt>push</tt> Timing Test</a> for the case
of primitive types.)</p>
<p>The STL's priority queues do not seem to perform well in
this case: the <tt>std::vector</tt> implementation needs to
perform a logarithmic sequence of string operations for each
operation, and the deque implementation is possibly hampered by
its need to manipulate a relatively-complex type (deques
support a <i>O(1)</i> <tt>push_front</tt>, even though it is
not used by <tt>std::priority_queue</tt>.)</p>
<p><a href="pq_performance_tests.html#pq_observations">Priority-Queue
Performance Tests::Observations</a> discusses this further and
summarizes.</p>
