Great, thanks for the details, I agree.
Hope it's useful for others to see these details.


Thanks Johan, much appreciated. :)

(btw, did you also check the performance gains when using the 
profile of the benchmark itself, to learn about the upper-bound 
of PGO for your program?)


I'll merge the IR PGO addition into LDC master soon. Don't know 
what difference it'll make.


No, I didn't do an upper-bounds check, that's a good idea. I plan 
to test the IR based PGO when it's available, I'll run an 
upper-bounds check as part of it.

how long does it take to learn ?
how easy is using it ?
how fast can we type with it ?
