I agree although I'm not sure about the compiler optimization. A quick look at the patches and I'm not sure the performance gains will be that noticeable. Most of the changes are in code that is called once on demand in response to a user request as opposed to the drawing or drc code where large numbers of calls happen frequently. That being said, we really should be doing a better job of not passing entire objects on the stack unless there is a good reason to do so. > > If the attached patches are autogenerated, then I would kindly ask you > to generate them when we reach the feature freeze stage.

There are quite a few outstanding patches that will likely have enough conflicts so I would rather not pile more on top of that. > > Regards, > Orson > > On 09/23/2017 12:17 PM, Camille 019 wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> >> I recently play with clang-tidy on the KiCad source code.
