------- Comment #9 from et at ihear dot com 2005-11-15 22:10 ------- This cripples virtual inheritance for fine-grain parallel processing. There should at least be a compiler option for process-independent referencing, because admittedly, this would slow down dereferencing. Or maybe a operator new placement variant that specifies process-independent referencing. I can see that either way, it would cause major ripple effects. Maybe that's why I don't see any action on this item since May.
I am making this comment because I think it is a very important enhancement to make as soon as possible, as processors go multi-core. I have also read that the other signicifant c++ compiler uses process independent referencing. -- et at ihear dot com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |et at ihear dot com http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21251
