Looks like I get 4fold speedup on tree profiling with profiling compared to tree profiling on mainline that is equivalent to speedup you are seeing for leafify patch. That sounds pretty prommising (so the new heuristics can get the leafify idea without the hint from user and hitting the code growth problems). It would be nice to experiment with this a little - in general the heuristics can be viewed as having three players. There are the limits (specified via --param) that it must obey, there is the cost model (estimated growth for inlining into all callees without profiling and the execute_count to estimated growth for inlining to one call with profiling) and the bin packing algorithm optimizing the gains while obeying the limits. With profiling in the cost model is pretty much realistic and it would be nice to figure out how the performance behave when the individual limits are changed and why. If you have some time for experimentation, it would be very usefull. I am trying to do the same with SPEC and GCC but I have dificulty to play with pooma or Gerald's application as I have little understanding what is going there. I will try it myself next but any feedback can be very usefull here. My plan is to try undersand the limits first and then try to get the cost model better without profiling as it is bit too clumpsy to do both at once.
