^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
PGO takes advantage of recent versions of the GCC or Clang compilers. If used,
either via ``configure --enable-optimizations`` above or by manually running
``make profile-opt`` regardless of configure flags it will do several steps.
First, the entire Python directory is cleaned of temporary files that may have
resulted in a previous compilation.
Then, an instrumented version of the interpreter is built, using suitable
compiler flags for each flavour. Note that this is just an intermediary step.
The binary resulting from this step is not good for real life workloads as
it has profiling instructions embedded inside.
After this instrumented version of the interpreter is built, the Makefile will
automatically run a training workload. This is necessary in order to profile
the interpreter execution. Note also that any output, both stdout and stderr,
that may appear at this step is suppressed.
Finally, the last step is to rebuild the interpreter, using the information
collected in the previous one. The end result will be a Python binary that is
optimized and suitable for distribution or production installation.
