llvm dev - Aug 2016 - [Open Project] Second Order Predective Commoning

Hello LLVM Developers,

I am looking for a project topic for my Advance Compilation Techniques
course.
I would like to know status of open project Second Order Predictive
Commoning [Arie Tal 2004].
Is there any progress? Also Is this still relevant to LLVM in terms of
performance improvement or how much interest is there among community?
My hunch is that Loop unrolling is already implemented in LLVM so
implementing this optimization will be a kind of extension to that.

Any thoughts/suggestions are welcomed!

Hoping for replies!

Sincerely,
VIvek Pandya

Hi Vivek,
