http://llvm.org/devmtg/2018-10/ — Heap-to-Stack Conversion - Hal Finkel Slides: — This talk provides a brief update on work to enable heap-to-stack conversion within LLVM's optimizer. This optimization eliminates unnecessary calls to memory allocation routines (e.g., malloc), where suitable, by converting allocations to use stack memory instead of heap memory. For applications where hot code creates and destroys many short-lived objects, significant performance improvements can be observed. — Videos Filmed & Edited by Bash Films: http://www.BashFilms.com ...more
