cost models

mmcloughlin opened this issue · 0 comments

Currently, addition chains are chosen with basic cost models: typically just length, but also #120 allowed weightings for add/double.

It could be good to support more complex cost functions. For example #54 suggested number of live variables, or estimate of pipeline stalls.

At the moment this issue is just a placeholder to record the idea and invite discussion.
