Hi all,
I'm currently trying to improve Typed Racket's contract generation. I
have a change which improves time/memory usage and also the size of the
expanded code.
The trouble is that despite the decrease in the size of the expanded
code, the resulting zo files are actually *larger*.
I found this unintuitive. Is there anything I can do to get the bytecode
compiler to help me out here?
Here are the numbers:
with change without change
matrix.rkt expansion | 264K | 524K
--------------------------------------------------
matrix.rkt zo file | 1036K | 820K
If you'd like to try to reproduce this, the branch I'm operating on is
here:
https://github.com/takikawa/racket/tree/tr-experimentation-2
I got the expansion size with:
raco expand matrix.rkt > matrix-expansion
du matrix-expansion
and just `du compiled/matrix_rkt.zo` for zo file size. This is for
"matrix.rkt" in the math library.
Cheers,
Asumu
