[llvm-dev] MCJit Runtine Performance

[Morten Brodersen via llvm-dev]

Hi Keno,

I am talking about runtime. The performance of the generated machine 
code. Not the time it takes to lower the IR to machine code.

We typically only JIT once (taking a few secs) and then run the 
generated machine code for hours. So the JIT time (IR -> machine code) 
doesn't impact us.

Cheers
Morten
