Benchmark +fp against mainline 5.1.1 #34

@ManasJayanth ManasJayanth commented Mar 17, 2024

The new post about frame pointers by Brendan Gregg has made me curious about how the +fp variant of the compiler performs against mainline.

Notes for reviewer:

  1. Should it be 5.1.1 or 5.1.1+stable?
  2. I'm unsure, at this point, what the expiry should be. Feedback is very welcome.

Notes for reviewer:

1. Should it be `5.1.1` or `5.1.1+stable`?

You can use 5.1.1+trunk.

2. I'm unsure, at this point, what the expiry should be. Feedback is very welcome.

You set the expiry to be a few days from now, just to capture a snapshot of the benchmarks.

We currently run benchmarks against the latest OCaml trunk every night, and configure benchmarks against specific branches for short periods, just to collect some snapshots of the data.

You probably want to add something like this, here:

"configure": "--enable-frame-pointers",

1. Fix expiry date: to next week
2. Use +trunk in the name
3. Use --enable-framepointer flag for fp variant
