Open-Source Tools and Libraries for Profile-Guided Optimization

Abstract

Miller Baroz

Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) is a powerful technique for improving the performance of software applications. By collecting runtime data and feedback from actual program executions, PGO enables compilers to make informed decisions about code optimization. In this article, we explore open-source tools and libraries that facilitate PGO, helping developers create faster and more efficient software. We discuss the benefits of PGO, its implementation process and showcase popular open-source solutions, highlighting their features, use cases and advantages.
