<h1>Clang - Performance</h1>
|
|
<!--*************************************************************************-->
|
|
|
|
<p>This page shows the compile time performance of Clang on two
|
|
interesting benchmarks:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><i>Sketch</i>: The Objective-C example application shipped on
|
|
Mac OS X as part of Xcode. <i>Sketch</i> is indicative of a
|
|
"typical" Objective-C app. The source itself has a relatively
|
|
small amount of code (~7,500 lines of source code), but it relies
|
|
on the extensive Cocoa APIs to build its functionality. Like many
|
|
Objective-C applications, it includes <tt>Cocoa/Cocoa.h</tt> in
|
|
all of its source files, which represents a significant stress
|
|
test of the front-end's performance on lexing, preprocessing,
|
|
parsing, and syntax analysis.</li>
|
|
<li><i>176.gcc</i>: This is the gcc-2.7.2.2 code base as present in
|
|
SPECINT 2000. In contrast to Sketch, <i>176.gcc</i> consists of a
|
|
large amount of C source code (~200,000 lines) with few system
|
|
dependencies. This stresses the back-end's performance on generating
|
|
assembly code and debug information.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>

|
|
|
<p>Measurements are done by running a full build (using xcodebuild or
|
|
make for Sketch and 176.gcc respectively) using Clang and gcc 4.2 as
|
|
compilers.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In order to track the performance of various subsystems the timings
|
|
have been broken down into separate stages where possible. This is
|
|
done by over-riding the CC environment variable used during the build
|
|
to point to one of a few simple shell scripts which may skip part of
|
|
the build.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><tt>non-compiler</tt>: The overhead of the build system itself;
|
|
for Sketch this also includes the time to build/copy various
|
|
non-source code resource files.</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ driver</tt>: Add execution of the driver, but do not execute any
|
|
commands (by using the -### driver option).</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ pch gen</tt>: Add generation of PCH files (if used).</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ syntax</tt>: Add preprocessing, parsing, and semantic checking of
|
|
source files.</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ IRgen</tt>: Add generation of LLVM IR (gcc has no
|
|
corresponding phase).</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ codegen</tt>: Add generation of assembler files.</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ assembler</tt>: Add assembler time to generate .o files.</li>
|
|
<li><tt>+ linker</tt>: Add linker time.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This set of stages is chosen to be approximately additive, that is each
|
|
subsequent stage simply adds some additional processing. The timings measure the
|
|
delta of the given stage from the previous one. For example, the timings
|
|
for <tt>+ syntax</tt> below show the difference of running with <tt>+
|
|
syntax</tt> versus the times for <tt>+ pch gen</tt>. This amounts to a fairly
|
|
accurate measure of only the time to perform preprocessing, parsing, and
|
|
semantic analysis after PCH generation is done.</p>
