What is the impact of template metaprogramming on compile-time and runtime?
- Increases both compile-time and runtime.
- Reduces compile-time but increases runtime.
- Increases compile-time but reduces or has no impact on runtime.
- It doesn't affect compile-time or runtime.
Template metaprogramming (TMP) shifts computations to the compile-time, making the generated code more optimized. This results in increased compile times because the computations and code generation are happening at that phase. However, at runtime, the program may run faster or at least not have an added overhead from TMP since the computations were already done during compilation.
