Reducing Application Startup Time by Optimizing Spatial Locality of Instructions in Executables

摘要

Provided are techniques for parsing source code file into a plurality of functions; generating a ranking corresponding to each of the plurality of functions based upon an order of occurrence in the source code file; generating a weight score corresponding to each of the plurality of functions based upon a weighing factor and the occurrence of a condition corresponding to each of the plurality of functions; and generating an object code file such that the plurality of functions are ordered in the object code file based upon the corresponding rankings and weight scores such during a startup of execution of the object code file a startup time is minimized with respect to an object code file not generated in accordance with the claimed method.
