--- Comment #13 from JuzheZhong <juzhe.zhong at rivai dot ai> --- Ok. I found the optimized tree: _5 = 3.33333333333333314829616256247390992939472198486328125e-1 - _4; _8 = .FMA (_5, 1.229999999999999982236431605997495353221893310546875e-1, _4); Let CST0 = 3.33333333333333314829616256247390992939472198486328125e-1, CST1 = 1.229999999999999982236431605997495353221893310546875e-1 The expression is equivalent to the following: _5 = CST0 - _4; _8 = _5 * CST1 + 4; That is: _8 = (CST0 - _4) * CST1 + 4; So, We should be able to re-associate it like Clang: _8 = CST0 * CST1 - _4 * CST1 + 4; ---> _8 = CST0 * CST1 + _4 * (1 - CST1); Since both CST0 * CST1 and 1 - CST1 can be pre-computed during compilation time. Let say CST2 = CST0 * CST1, CST3 = 1 - CST1, then we can re-associate as Clang: _8 = FMA (_4, CST3, CST2). Any suggestions for this re-association ? Is match.pd the right place to do it ? Thanks.
