Hello list, Looking at the projects on gcc.gnu.org, one sees work being done on a new graph coloring based register allocator for gcc 3.1. I hear that it might even make its way into 3.1..
The gcc open projects page only says: New register allocator Daniel Berlin and Michael Matz are working on an implementation of a graph-coloring register allocator. A branch is created in CVS with the tag new-regalloc-branch. It is known to bootstrap under x86-linux and ppc-linux. This could obviously result in great improvements for ppc. Has anyone tried it, has any performance data etc ? I want to ask the list before trying it out myself, if I do get around to actually doing it ;-) viral -- http://www.mayin.org/~gandalf And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
