Techniques for mitigating high-latency instructions in high-traffic execution paths

摘要

Embodiments may be directed to techniques for executing a binary code based on source code comprising basic instruction blocks, identifying an execution path of a plurality of basic instruction blocks having a higher execution frequency than an execution frequency threshold, and last branch data records for the plurality of bases Capture instruction blocks, wherein the records of the last branch should indicate the execution times for the plurality of basic instruction blocks. Further, embodiments include determining latency values for each of the plurality of basic instruction blocks based on the execution times and performing an attenuation operation for each of the plurality of basic instruction blocks whose latency values are above a latency threshold.
