Application optimization for use based on feature popularity

摘要

The popularity of various application features is tracked, and applications are compiled or otherwise configured for optimization based on the use of the more popular features. More specifically, application features are mapped to corresponding sections of underlying code, and compiler directives are generated to direct a compiler to optimize the application for the performance of specific, application features, based on their popularity. This way, the application is compiled for use at an application feature level, rather than for size or speed generally. In another embodiment, the optimization is performed after compile time, by rearranging object code pages of an executable image, based on corresponding application feature popularity.
