Hi, I went ahead, updated the patch, tested wth profiledbootstrap on x86_64-linux and commited. I really need to progress with heuristic re-tunning before we get too far in stage3. In addition to caching result of find_working_set I had to avoid ICE when we try to determine DECL_STRUCT_FUNCTION of callee if ithe indirect call.
