12<h1>Tree-Based and Trie-Based Text Insert Timing Test</h1>
13<h2><a name="description" id="description">Description</a></h2>
14<p>This test inserts a number of values with keys from an
15    arbitrary text ([ <a href="references.html#wickland96thirty">wickland96thirty</a> ]) into
16    a container using <tt>insert</tt> . It measures the average
17    time for <tt>insert</tt> as a function of the number of values
18    inserted.</p>

200<p>Observing Figure <a href="#NNTG">NNTG</a> , for this
201    setting, a splay tree, ( <a href="tree.html"><tt>tree</tt></a>
202    with <tt>Tag =</tt> <a href="splay_tree_tag.html"><tt>splay_tree_tag</tt></a> ) does
203    not do well. This was covered in <a href="tree_text_find_find_timing_test.html">Tree-Based and
204    Trie-Based Text <tt>find</tt> Find Timing Test</a> . The two
205    red-black trees perform better.</p>
206<p>Observing Figure <a href="#NVTG">NVTG</a>, an ordered-vector
207    tree ( <a href="tree.html"><tt>tree</tt></a>
208    with <tt>Tag =</tt> <a href="ov_tree_tag.html"><tt>ov_tree_tag</tt></a>) performs
209    abysmally. Inserting into this type of tree has linear
210    complexity [ <a href="references.html#austern00noset">austern00noset</a>].</p>
211<p>Observing Figure <a href="#NPTG">NPTG</a> , A PATRICIA trie
212    ( <a href="trie.html"><tt>trie</tt></a>
213    with <tt>Tag =</tt> <a href="pat_trie_tag.html"><tt>pat_trie_tag</tt></a> ) has
214    abysmal performance, as well. This is not that surprising,
215    since a large-fan-out PATRICIA trie works like a hash table with
216    collisions resolved by a sub-trie. Each time a collision is
217    encountered, a new "hash-table" is built A large fan-out
218    PATRICIA trie, however, doe does well in look-ups (see <a href="tree_text_find_find_timing_test.html">Tree-Based and
219    Trie-Based Text <tt>find</tt> Find Timing Test</a> ). It is
220    possibly beneficial to semi-static settings, therefore.</p>
