Hi, I'm doing some research on register allocation and was wondering
if anyone is familiar with optimal register allocators being used
outside of academia.


By optimal register allocator I'm thinking along the lines of:


Register allocation for irregular architectures
http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=513854


Precise register allocation for irregular architectures
http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=291002


Has anyone used such an approach to compile code for a shipping
product? When is the compile-time/code-quality tradeoff worthwhile?


Thanks,
-Dave
