Selecting the optimal combination of compiler passes is a significant challenge to enhance performance and reduce the code size of compiled binaries. While
What is Compiler Passes - The whole source program can be processed several times before generating the assembly/machine code.Pass − One complete scan or processing of the source program. Various phases can be arranged into one pass. Lexical, syntax &
The complexity and diversity of today's architec-tures require an additional effort from the programmers in port-ing and tuning the application code across different platforms. The problem is even more complex when considering that also the compiler requires some tuning, since standard optimization ...
(Ah, memories. These last two passes were the first things I worked on when I joined the compiler team.) Then we run a pass which rewrites uses of named and optional parameters into calls where the side effects all happen in the correct order. Then we run a pass which optimizes arithme...
Which leads me to suspect external factors or a bug in the compiler. Anti-Virus? Multiple projects sharing a pdb? Does the code compile running the cl.exe from command line (without CMake and without /FS)? As a workaround, instead of setting ForceSynchronousPDBWrites, I recommend setting...

The designed space of compiler phase ordering can be vast. In this work, we let Ω denote the whole optimization space, N denote the number of available compiler passes, and M denote the maximum length of compiler optimiza- tions. We use these notations to define the problem size for pass...
