AlphaDev uncovered new sorting algorithms that led to improvements in the LLVM libc++ sorting library that were up to 70% faster for shorter sequences and about 1.7% faster for sequences exceeding 250,000 elements.
AlphaDev uncovered new sorting algorithms that led to improvements in the LLVM libc++ sorting library that were up to 70% faster for shorter sequences and about 1.7% faster for sequences exceeding 250,000 elements.
From the main section of the paper published in Nature (which is available for free):
It seems they did find improvements for sorting variable sized list but only the sort 3, sort 4 and sort 5 algorithms got implemented in LLVM.
