Re: Detailed algorithms on inline optimization

This is an article on inlining that is used with a new concept where
many functions are inlined as heavily as possible to create a very
large per object instance function. This is not like regular inlining
which is quite static, this technique is also for inlining the this
pointer and direct object references in some cases.


If you have or are involved with building a VM that can do proper
inlining, then see this new method of speeding up some kinds of code
constructs when programming with objects.


The concept is like bulk runtime object devirtualization where the
devirtualization is for inlining both virtual method calls and field
references. IT works with attributes applied to fields and methods
similar to something like cdecl. For things like compilers, VST
plugins, some RegeX, SQL etc there is scope for massive speedup
enhancement.


For short you can refer to it as devirt.
