perf(compile): reduce generated bundle bloat - #8418
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe compiler adds opt-in size optimization and oversized-function demotion, tracks both settings in cache keys, defers JSON parsing to runtime, and resolves type-only interface dispatch through the runtime class registry. ChangesNative optimization controls
Module compilation behavior
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR substantially reduces generated bundle size, but its current JSON import validation can reject valid runtime JSON and its function demotion path can fail compilation when conflicting optimization attributes are present. These bounded correctness risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Document both hybrid-mode variables.
PERRY_LL_PREOPT_OPTNONE_INSTRS alone keeps ordinary functions at the default -O3. -Os requires a truthy PERRY_LL_SIZE_OPT. State that the measured hybrid mode uses both PERRY_LL_SIZE_OPT=1 and PERRY_LL_PREOPT_OPTNONE_INSTRS=8192.

LLVM LangRef optnone incompatible minsize optsize optdebug alwaysinline inlinehint
💡 Result:
In LLVM, the optnone function attribute is designed to prevent optimizations on a function [1][2][3]. Due to its purpose, it is explicitly incompatible with several other function attributes that either mandate or influence specific optimization behaviors [1][2][4]. The optnone attribute is incompatible with the following: - alwaysinline: The optnone attribute cannot be used with alwaysinline [1][2][3]. LLVM verifiers explicitly flag these as incompatible because optnone forbids optimizations while alwaysinline mandates them [2][3]. - minsize: This is incompatible with optnone [1][2][3]. - optsize: This is incompatible with optnone [1][2][3]. - optdebug: This is also incompatible with optnone [4]. Additionally, the optnone attribute implicitly requires the noinline attribute to be present [1]. This ensures that the function is never inlined into any caller, which is consistent with its goal of preventing optimization-related transformations [1][2][5]. While inlinehint is not always explicitly listed in the same "incompatible" error blocks as alwaysinline in the verifier, it is generally considered conceptually incompatible with the "no optimization" goal of optnone [6]. Top results: [1], [2], [3], [4]

Remove minsize, optsize, and optdebug before adding optnone.
If a demoted function carries any of these attributes, LLVM verification rejects the module. Add a fixture with one conflicting attribute.

serde_json 1.0.151 Value from_str 1e400 number out of range arbitrary_precision default
💡 Result:
In serde_json, the behavior when parsing a number like "1e400" depends on whether the arbitrary_precision feature is enabled [1][2]. When the arbitrary_precision feature is enabled, serde_json preserves the string representation of the number within the serde_json::Number type [2][3]. Consequently, parsing "1e400" using from_str succeeds, and it is stored as a valid Value::Number [1][4]. However, because this value exceeds the range of a standard 64-bit float (f64), calling the.as_f64 method on this number will return None [1][4]. Conversely, without the arbitrary_precision feature, serde_json typically attempts to parse the number into a representation compatible with f64. Numbers that are out of range for f64 may be rejected or handled differently depending on the specific context of parsing [5]. It is important to note that the arbitrary_precision feature is not enabled by default [6]. To use it, you must explicitly enable it in your Cargo.toml dependencies: [dependencies] serde_json = { version = "1.0", features = ["arbitrary_precision"] } This feature ensures that JSON numbers of arbitrary size or precision can be read into a Number and written back to a JSON string without loss of precision, as opposed to the default behavior which prioritizes f64 compatibility [2][3].

Match JSON-module number acceptance to JSON.parse.
serde_json 1.0.151 without arbitrary_precision rejects 1e400, but JSON.parse("1e400") returns Infinity. This gate rejects valid runtime input. Use compatible validation and add coverage for 1e400.
