Patent ID: 8782622

Claim:
A system for improving the performance of compiled Java code, comprising: an information processing system including one or more processors; a native code management module executing on the information processing system, the native code management module operable to: identify the one or more processors associated with the information processing system; determine an instruction set architecture (ISA) associated with individual processors of the plurality of processors; generate a plurality of compiler parameter permutations, each permutation relating to a combination of information about the one or more processors, the ISA of the one or more processors, and at least one of a plurality of native code compilation optimization operations relating to the one or more processors and the ISAs, wherein the plurality of native code compilation optimization operations includes: code vectorization operations, Instruction Based Sampling operations, or Lightweight Profiling (LWP) operations; provide the compiler parameter permutations to a just-in-time compiler operable to iteratively use the compiler parameter permutations to compile predetermined Java bytecode into a plurality of native code iterations, each native code iteration corresponding to a respective permutation; measure the performance of each native code iteration to generate performance measurements; perform comparison operations on the performance measurements to select a best performing native code iteration from among the plurality of native code iterations; and execute the selected native code iteration.
