Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Modern JIT compilers often employ multi-level recompilation strategies as a means of ensuring the most used code is also the most highly optimized, balancing optimization costs and expected future performance. Accurate selection of code to compile and level of optimization to apply is thus important to performance. In this paper we investigate the effect of an improved recompilation strategy for a Java virtual machine. Our design makes use of a lightweight, low-level profiling mechanism to detect high-level, variable length phases in program execution. Phases are then used to guide adaptive recompilation choices, improving performance. We develop both an offline implementation based on trace data and a self-contained online version. Our offline study shows an average speedup of 8.7% and up to 21%, and our online system achieves an average speedup of 4.4%, up to 18%. We subject our results to extensive analysis and show that our design achieves good overall performance with high consistency despite the existence of many complex and interacting factors in such an environment.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
