Compileritinerary
A compiler itinerary is a data structure used by optimizing compilers to represent the sequence of optimization passes that will be applied to source code. It defines the order in which various transformations, such as dead code elimination, loop unrolling, or function inlining, will be performed. The itinerary plays a crucial role in determining the effectiveness and efficiency of the compilation process. Different itineraries can lead to significantly different performance characteristics in the generated machine code.
The design of a compiler itinerary is a complex task, balancing the desire for aggressive optimizations with
Compiler developers often experiment with different itinerary configurations to find optimal trade-offs for specific target architectures
