I remembered something about "precise" profiles and thought maybe that had something to do with not marking functions as cold with samplepgo? But maybe `PSI->isFunctionColdInCallGraph(F, *BFI)` takes care of all of that In D149800#4317483 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D149800#4317483>, @tejohnson wrote: > Previously @yamauchi did a bunch of work related to this called PGSO (Profile > Guided Size Optimization).

I think there are still a lot of places that just look at optsize/minsize. I'll take a look at the inline cost model more to see how it interacts with hotness. Separately, it seems good for compile times to calculate once if a function is cold or not and save that result as optsize/minsize. > @davidxl may remember the details, but iirc fully using minsize/optnone for > cold funcs might have been too big of a hammer performance-wise. s/optnone/optsize? But I'm surprised that even minsize would make a perf difference just in functions that are supposedly cold. IIUC there aren't too many differences at least in the optimization pipeline for minsize functions aside from inlining thresholds (maybe there's more drastic changes in the backend?). It would be good to know if previous attempts at this sort of thing have shown perf regressions.
