#### Profile Guided Optimization
|

|
||||
First, make sure you have configured a [release](#release-build) build
|
||||
directory, but:
|
||||
directory, but add these to the `CFLAGS`:
|
||||
|
||||
If using Clang, make sure to add `-Wno-ignored-optimization-argument
|
||||
-Wno-profile-instr-out-of-date` to `CFLAGS`.
|
||||
* Clang: `-Wno-ignored-optimization-argument -Wno-profile-instr-out-of-date`
|
||||
* GCC: `-Wno-missing-profile`
|
||||
|
||||
If using GCC, make sure to add `-Wno-missing-profile` to `CFLAGS`.

```sh

meson configure -Db_pgo=generate

```
|

|

Next, we need to execute the intermediate build of foot, and run a
|
||||
payload inside it that will exercise the performance critical code
|
||||
paths.
|
||||
Next, we need to actually generate the profiling data.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to do this: a [partial PGO build using a PGO
|
||||
helper](#partial-pgo) binary, or a [full PGO build](#full-pgo) by
|
||||
running an intermediate foot binary. The latter has slightly better
|
||||
results (i.e. results in a faster binary), but must be run in a
|
||||
Wayland session.
