How many targets do you usually keep in the chain before dropping?
I currently set the max to 10. As most( > 98%) of my callsites are 10 or
less most of the
time there is no effect. I have not looked into if this is too deep for
the inliner or not. I have
been told that between 5 and 10 should be OK. I plan to look at this
closer after the jvm
settles a bit.
ignoring that I cannot easily do that, this surely is an approach, but I
am worried about memory here.
I worry as well. And its not yet clear to me that this would be important
in the long run.
A GWT should be nothing more than a test and branch so I would expect even
deep chains
to be fast and inlined. For those that get too deep dropping them should
be fine. In the
Smalltalk reference I am using they drop all of the JITed code when it
gets to 1 meg and
just start over. This seems to keep the code clean and only adds about
10% to the start
up time.
