Matlab getting progressively slower in running simulation
显示 更早的评论
The matlab code I'm running gets slower as time moves on. It's in this part of my program, which has a loop. the loop contains an isnan() function and some if else statements. The loop is used to concatenate values to a matrix using the cat function. The loop has to iterate around 160,000 times. The loop starts off fast, iterating 30000 times in aroun 3 seconds and the rest 130,000 is done in aroun 2 minutes. Just want to know why it's so.

Because this: "The loop is used to concatenate values to a matrix using the cat function" forces MATLAB to move the array in memory on each loop iteration, which is very slow as the array gets larger. This topic has been discussed thousands of times on this forum, so you can use the search feature (top of this page) to find explanations of why this happens, and you should read the documentation too:

@Nagesh A P: it is recommended to preallocate all arrays before loops, just as a matter of habit.
