Descripción

...as discussed in https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/462.

Basically, we can simplify the quickening process by quickening code objects as they are created. This works by ditching our per-code-object warmup counter, and instead using our adaptive backoff counters for more-granular "warming".

I have a branch that implements this change, resulting in consistent a ~1% performance improvement. I imagine that this comes from several places:

  • A lower specialization threshold. I tried a wide range of initial adaptive counter values (ranging from 0 to 4095), and a value of 1 worked best. With this value, adaptive instructions will specialize the second time they are run.
  • A simpler interpreter loop. RESUME_QUICK and JUMP_BACKWARD_QUICK are no longer needed.
  • Superinstructions everywhere. All code objects have superinstructions now.

Next steps will be simplifying the unmarshal / code creation process as part of this same work.
