The branch was tested on x86/x86_64/ppc64/arm and benchmarked on
SPEC2000 and SPEC2006 on x86_64. For x86_64 SPEC20006 (Core i7) the
branch creates smaller size code (about 0.2%), needs less 1 sec for
compilation, and generates the same INT score and 1% better FP score.
Those are great results!
Would you please also post scores from at least one embedded RISC
architecture, e.g., ARM, MIPS, Power? Even x86_64 is a bit of a
different beast from these, and before we merge this in, I think we
should know what this does elsewhere.
