We evaluated different tests before setting down and proposing regrtest suite for PGO training, including using OpenStack benchmarks for OpenStack applications. The regrtest suite was found consistently giving the best in terms of performance across applications/workloads. So I would hesitate

Hi Ben, Out of curiosity with a quick experiment, I ran your pentomino.py with 2.7.12 PGO+LTO build (Ubuntu OS 16.04.2 LTS default at /usr/bin/python), and compared with 3.7.0 alpha1 PGO+LTO (which I built a while ago), on my SkyLake processor based desktop, and 2.7 outperforms 3.7 by 3.5%. On

Hi Victor, Thanks for the great contribution to the unified benchmark development! In addition to the OutReachy program that we are currently supporting, let us know how else we could help out in this effort. Other than micros and benchmarking ideas, we'd also like to hear suggestions from t
