        I'm afraid there is none; at least none
I'm aware of.  However, you can refer to the
offical literature on which the modules are
based, e.g. the papers of Manuvir Das and Bjarne
Steensgaard.

        Though performance isn't everything and
analysis precision can play an important role in
particular in the field of points-to-analysis.

I remember a problem where Olf came up with
Cil.varinfo lists up to 1800 elements long,
whereas the lists Golf produced for the same
program had a maximum size of 5.  YMMV.
