[llvm-dev] [GSoC 2016] Capture Tracking Improvements - BackgroundInformation

[Nuno Lopes via llvm-dev]

Hey Scott,

There has been quite a lot of research on capture tracking (aka escape 
analysis) for Java and other dynamic languages.
See e.g.:
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/HotSpot/EscapeAnalysis
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/vm/performance-enhancements-7.html

Hi Phillip,

I've been looking into the Capture Tracking Improvements and I was
wondering if there was any research/documentation that you know of that
I could use as background reading?

Many thanks,
Scott
