A completely-from-scratch hobby operating system: bootloader, kernel, drivers, C library, and userspace including a composited graphical UI, dynamic linker, syntax-highlighting text editor, network stack, etc.
According to my tests, Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) helps with optimizing to a lot of software (including OS like Linux and Windows - link). I think it's worth trying to apply PGO to ToaruOS.
We need to perform PGO benchmarks on ToaruOS. If it shows improvements - add a note to the documentation about possible improvements to ToaruOS's performance with PGO. After that, providing an easier way (e.g. a build option) to build scripts with PGO can be useful for the maintainers and end-users too. Also, applying PGO on ToaruOS can be used as an example for other operating systems.
If anyone already did PGO benchmarks with ToaruOS - would be awesome to see the results.
