Zusammenfassung:There is provided a computer implemented method for determining the efficiency of a runtime compiler. A set of execution times representing the time taken for program code to perform a set task after two or more runtime compilations is recorded. A first metric as the difference between the first execution time and the last execution time of the set of execution times, a second metric as the average throughput improvement from the set of execution times, and a third metric as the time taken for the compiler to achieve the maximum throughput from the set of execution times is calculated. Finally, an efficiency metric is calculated using the first, second and third metrics to determine the efficiency of the compiler.
