- sievebrain 10y agoCan you name one?
- chrisseaton 10y agoPartial escape analysis is one http://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/Research/Papers/Stadler14/Stadler2014-CGO-PEA.pdf http://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/Research/Papers/Stadler14/Stad...
- sievebrain 10y agoAh, I meant "alternatives to HotSpot" which is what the parent was implying. I've read the Graal papers and part of the source code. So I am familiar with PEA. It's too bad that optimisation didn't make it into C2 yet. I wonder if it ever will.
- chrisseaton 10y agoSomeone told me that Zing also does PEA, but I don't know that to be a fact.
- chrisseaton 10y agoOh and I think JRockit might have done it as well.
