Black Belt Itanium Processor Performance: The Foundation (Part 1 of 5)

Tags:
processors

Overview Many optimizations will automatically be enabled with aggressive compiler flags. However, with a small amount of performance analysis, architectural insight and targeted code modification, the software developer can greatly improve the resulting application performance. Understanding and resolving pointer ambiguation is important on all architectures and will always improve performance, but on Itanium architecture-based processors the payoff can be enormous, and help release the full power of this new architecture.
