Konstantinos Sagonas, Mikael Pettersson, Richard Carlsson, Per E. Gustafsson, Tobias Lindahl · 2003
We present a user-oriented description of features and characteristics of the High Performance ERLANG (HiPE) native code compiler, which nowadays is part of Erlang/OTP. In particular, we describe components and recent additions to the compiler that improve its performance and extend its functionality. In addition, we attempt to give some recommendations on how users can get the best out of HiPE's performance.
