It's coming with flambda. Am I wrong?
- cm3 10y agoNot that I'm aware of. Edit: flambda has been released in 4.03 and I'm using it but utop is 17MB, so I doubt proper dead code elimination is part of flambda.
- mseri 10y agoSorry, what I meant is that I remember having read somewhere that dead code elimination, or some sort of, will be one of the optimization coming in the future due to the introduction of flambda. When I go back home I will try to find a reference, I might recall wrongly
- cm3 10y agoYou're probably right that it was mentioned on Jane Street's blog that flambda will enable such optimizations. I recall one of the ocamlc devs saying that real dead code elimination is planned but not available yet.
