...he helper functions and methods so the api can be kept a little smaller. They also might be named differently and the semantics can be changed. For instance, the function "createPromoteMemoryToRegisterPass" creates a Pass object that we can add to a PassManager, but in ocaml we have "add_memory_to_register_promotion" which takes a PassManager as an argument and adds it inside the binding. This makes memory management a bit simpler.

...t; optimizations and bit-twiddling optzn. *) add_instruction_combining pm; (* reassociate expressions. *) add_reassociation pm; (* Eliminate Common SubExpressions. *) add_gvn pm; (* Simplify the control flow graph (deleting unreachable blocks, etc). *) add_cfg_simplification pm; add_memory_to_register_promotion pm; and then I apply "PassManager.run_function" to every function after it is validated. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Has anyone else got this functionality giving performance boosts from OCaml? -- Dr Jon Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/?e
