Ertl, M. A. (2023). The Performance Effects of Virtual-Machine Instruction Pointer Updates. In M. A. Ertl (Ed.), 39th EuroForth Conference (pp. 56–59). https://doi.org/10.34726/8722
By optimizing instruction-pointer updates away where possible, the number of executed instructions is typically reduced by a factor of 1.2. The speedup varies widely with the microarchitecture and benchmark, from slowdowns by a factor of 1.1 to speedups by a factor of 2.2. This talk looks at how the big speedups can be explained, and at an alternative way to achieve some of the same speedups.
