The addresses involved should always be aligned, so we can simply use a cast, just like the ARM simulator. Even if the alignment assumption did not hold and the platform we are running on couldn't handle unaligned access, some #ifdefs would be much more preferable. The affected member functions were the top 2 in a profile (18% and 15%), so basically every hack is allowed here to speed things up. :-) Removed some dead code for literals on the way. If we need to resurrect it, we should do it without double(!) memcpys. Generally, I still don't understand why we need the Instr/Instruction distinction or simply wrap Instr within Instruction, this seems to be much simpler and cleaner, but this would involve heavier changes. The overall speedup of this CL is roughly 37%, see the numbers below for a reduced Octane suite and the check targets: ------------------------------------------------------------ With memcpy: ------------------------------------------------------------ make -j32 a64.release.quickcheck => 03:29 make -j32 a64.release.check => 11:30 Reduced Octane suite => 05:16 Richards: 35.1 DeltaBlue: 64.1 RayTrace: 130 Splay: 66.1 SplayLatency: 619 NavierStokes: 58.7 PdfJS: 89.6 Mandreel: 58.5 MandreelLatency: 242 CodeLoad: 5103 Box2D: 124 ---- Score (version 9): 144 ------------------------------------------------------------ With casts: ------------------------------------------------------------ make -j32 a64.release.quickcheck => 02:14 make -j32 a64.release.check => 07:21 Reduced Octane suite => 03:21 Richards: 53.3 DeltaBlue: 103 RayTrace: 205 Splay: 95.9 SplayLatency: 859 NavierStokes: 103 PdfJS: 136 Mandreel: 94.8 MandreelLatency: 386 CodeLoad: 6493 Box2D: 179 ---- Score (version 9): 219 R=ulan@chromium.org Review URL: https://codereview.chromium.org/195873009 git-svn-id: http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/branches/bleeding_edge@19929 ce2b1a6d-e550-0410-aec6-3dcde31c8c00
