<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>Are there any moderately do-able optimizations that can be done in the Swift compiler that have not been done yet?</div><div><br></div><div>I am a masters student at the University of Alberta in Dr. J. Nelson Amaral's compiler optimization course, and I am searching for a project that can be reasonably completed in two months' time. Contributing to Swift's compiler seems like a great choice! I am also open to making improvements to LLVM in general, though the point of this project is to get my feet wet in static analysis -- I'm not an expert yet.</div><div><div><br class="gmail-Apple-interchange-newline">I'm interested in anything character encodings, strings and unicode, but that limits my options in terms of *compiler optimizations*. I can also look into profile-guided optimizations in LLVM [Profile], but I wanna know who's got dibs before I start off on my own.</div><div><br></div><div>Your input is welcome.</div><div><br></div><div>[Profile]: <a href="http://llvm.org/OpenProjects.html#profileguided">http://llvm.org/OpenProjects.html#profileguided</a></div></div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Eddie</div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">--<div>Eddie Antonio Santos</div><div>M.Sc.
