- Sep 23, 2025 Tiered Compilation and On-Stack Replacement Why runtimes compile the same method more than once, how a frame in the middle of an interpreted loop moves into optimized code, and what the transfer must reconstruct. language runtimes
- Feb 22, 2025 Warmup Transients and Detecting Steady State in Timed Loops Why the first iterations of a timed loop measure a different program, which subsystems are still converging, and how to locate the transition into steady state rather than assuming it. performance engineering
- Feb 17, 2024 Learning Rate Warmup and the Early Instability Window Why the first few hundred optimization steps are different from the rest, what large early updates do to adaptive optimizers, and how warmup bounds the damage. deep learning
