Bug ID: 31240
Summary: LONG DOUBLE: denormals: assigning a constant factor
100 slow,
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: libc

Created attachment 15297
--> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=15297&action=edit
snippet demonstrating slow evaluation of denormal constants
See subject, assigning 3.3E-4932 to a variable takes 100 times longer than
3.4E-4932.
Boiled it into the attached file which here produces the following output:
````
Assigning a long double denormal constant to a long double variable seems very
slow:
The '+ ( argc - 1 )' part is an attempt to block compiler cheating by compile
time assigning.
First column is the time used for 1000000 iterations. Factor ~100 looks odd to
me.
0.231966; 3.6451995318824746025284E-4951; x2l = ( LDBL_MIN_DEN + ( argc - 1 ) )
0.002198; 3.5000000000000000001381E-4932; x2l = ( 3.5e-4932l + ( argc - 1 ) )
0.002153; 3.4000000000000000000716E-4932; x2l = ( 3.4e-4932l + ( argc - 1 ) )

+ ( argc - 1 ) )
Note the break here, above are 'normal, below 'denormal' values.
0.209994; 3.3621031431120935058982E-4932; x2l = ( 3.362103143112093506E-4932l +

Not observed without the '+ ( argc - 1 )' part, assume compiler cheating.

Not observed when assigning long double values around double normal / denormal
break.

But! affecting evaluation of denormal double constants! Here penalty factor
'only' ~30.

No such problem when assigning to double variable.

Can't tell if hardware, compiler, library whatever.
Assume evaluation of constant when read.

You are evaluating non-optimized code which spills a lot stack operations and
this is not related to glibc at all. If you still think the code generation is
sub-optimal, please open a bug against gcc.
