Researchers at MIT have been working on a fork of LLVM to explore a new approach to optimizing parallel code by embedding fork-join parallelism directly into the compiler’s intermediate ...

Azul Systems has today announced the immediate availability of Zing 17.03, with full support for Azul’s new Falcon just-in-time (JIT) compiler based on LLVM and designed to replace the C2 ...

BOLT is a post-link optimization technology which builds on LLVM framework, which leverages perf tool to collection sampling data and convert the executable into an optimized version. After evaluating ...

But you can also use a pass to analyze or modify code for reasons other than code optimization. We recently talked about the difficulties of building infrastructure around a custom CPU.

Hence, they decided to investigate the use of LLVM's code generation and optimization. The LLVM-based fourth tier is called FTL, for Fourth Tier LLVM (and, of course, faster than light).

With Falcon, our LLVM-based compiler, you take regular Java loops that would run normally on previous hardware, and when our JVM runs on a new hardware, it recognizes the capabilities and basically ...

For their second milestone, which is scheduled for the second quarter of 2009, they hope to replace the Python virtual machine with a functionally-equivalent LLVM-based implementation.
