We all know that Quicksort is one of the fastest algorithms for sorting. It's not often, however, that we get a chance to see exactly how fast Quicksort really is. The following applets chart the progress of several common sorting algorithms while sorting an array of data using in-place algorithms. The result is a very cool visual demo of different sorting algorithm speeds. Source code is included.

Most entertaining. Although any decent developer is already familiar with the properties of most of these algorithms, it's still instructive to see them in action, especially side-by-side. Recommended!
