And that's what happens in probably like 99% of the cases. I objdump the code quite often to understand what happens under the hood and rarely I see that the similar code has been duplicated. There could be of course examples but I just didn't agree with "standard ... actively sabotage deduplication" sentiment which to me reads as something universal and not an exception.
- mike_hock 4y agoI think active sabotage is a correct assessment when a simple, obvious optimization is explicitly prohibited for no (defensible) reason and can only be applied by extensive whole-program analysis that allows the nonsensical rule to be bypassed completely. It's still sabotage, it's just mitigated by the extremely smart compilers we have nowadays that basically pick the program apart and rewrite a functionally equivalent one.
