Program-specific or function-specific optimization phase sequences are universally accepted to achieve better overall performance than any fixed optimization phase ordering. A ...
The issues of compiler optimization phase ordering and selection present important challenges to compiler developers in several domains, and in particular to the speed, code size,...
