Hi Boris, All machine code instructions produced by the JIT have a place that they code from in your RPython code. In this case I suspect that it's from self.compare(), but again, it's a bit hard to know without having access to the complete source code.
Alternatively, there is a way to display where the operations come from, but only during testing. You might rewrite your example as a test --- as opposed to, I suppose, a targetxxx.py. See the infinite amount of tiny examples in pypy/jit/metainterp/test/test_*.py, e.g. test_ajit.py. Write a new file in the same directory. The point is then that you can run the test with "python test_all.py test_yourfile.py --viewloops". It reports the same traces, but organized as a call graph and with the origin shown before every operation. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
