Low-Compilation-Cost Register Allocation in LLVM-Based Binary Translation

A novel register allocation algorithm for LLVM-based binary translators slashes compilation overhead by up to 40%—more than the typical optimization method. This breakthrough reduces emulation and cross-compilation pipeline latency, outperforming #10 in niche technical impact despite scoring only 13 points. The algorithm achieves a 30% reduction in code size compared to conventional approaches, speeding up dynamic binary translation by 2.1x in tested benchmarks. Its efficiency opens possibilities for real-time emulation of legacy systems on resource-constrained devices, a key advance for IoT and mobile cross-development.
