[flang][NFC] speedup BoxedProcedure for derived types with many components (#86144) This patch speeds up the compilation time of the example in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/76478#issuecomment-2011023289 from 2 minutes with my builds to about 2 seconds. MLIR timers showed more than 98% of the time was spend in BoxedProcedure trying to figure out if a type needs to be converted. This is because walking the fir.type members is very expansive for types containing many components and/or components with many sub-components. Increase the caching time of visited types from "the type being visited" to "the whole pass". Use DenseMap since it is not ok anymore to assume this container will only have a few elements.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
