Are there flags in V8 that will print out information about the V8 optimization process. For instance, in Hotspot, I can ask Java to print out debugging information when a method gets compiled (-XX: +PrintCompilation +PrintAssembly +PrintInlining) to see what kinds of optimizations are happening.
This can be used to find trouble spots in code, where Hotspot is intentionally not optimizing something that you might expect to get optimized. One example would be methods that are too large to get compiled in Hotspot. Are there similar or equivalent mechanisms in v8. I am interested in learning more about what optimizations are performed on different kinds of code in more detail.
