Pharo compiler

Hi Folks!

What are the different optimizations Pharo compiler offers? Is there more than a mere message inlining (class, ifTrue:ifFalse:, timesRepeat:, to:do:) ?

Cheers,
Alexandre

As Pharo uses right now the standard or Squeak compiler, this is exactly the same.
(And this will be true for the new one, too).

MessageNode>>#initialize

has:

MacroSelectors := #( ifTrue: ifFalse: ifTrue:ifFalse: ifFalse:ifTrue: and: or: whileFalse: whileTrue: whileFalse whileTrue to:do: to:by:do: caseOf: caseOf:otherwise: ifNil: ifNotNil: ifNil:ifNotNil: ifNotNil:ifNil:).

What else do you mean? There is of course the special bytecode (send plus...)
