profiledb: optimize your distro/builds with crowdsourced profile corpus
2025-09-27 , Auditorium B032 (80)

Profile-guided optimizations are not new, but also not that popular. Why? Maybe because your build workflow can't easily include profile gathering - and every time. What if we could share profile data with each other, so you could take advantage of public crowdsourcing? What if you could easily contribute back your workload profiles? What if we can integrate this into distro build systems? Let's try with profiledb: a bit of glue between git, profilers, and linkers.
