Eliminating loop overheadsFor starting a loop, the CPU must free certainregisters: loop counter, address, etc.This may be significant for a short loop!Example: for n>mdo i= 1,ndo j= 1,m...is less efficient thando j= 1,mdo i= 1,n...However, data access optimizations are even moreimportant, see belowProf. Craig C. DouglasUniversity of Kentucky andYale UniversityHiPC2003, 12/17/2003 vHPC <strong>Cache</strong> Aware Methods 78
Eliminating subroutine callingoverheadSubroutines (functions) are very important forstructured, modular programmingSubroutine calls are expensive (on the order of up to100 cycles)Passing value arguments (copying data) can beextremely expensive, when used inappropriatelyPassing reference arguments (as in FORTRAN) maybe dangerous from a point of view of correct softwareReference arguments (as in C++) with constdeclarationGenerally, in tight loops, no subroutine calls shouldbe usedProf. Craig C.
