We had a poor understanding of how the JIT compiler in the .NET Framework worked; we could only learn a little about it from a few books and blogs. With the release of .NET Core and its fully open source code, the JIT has become an open book; anyone can try to improve or tweak it.
In this talk, Egor will explain that it's actually not that difficult and doesn't require a rocket science degree. You'll learn about the full cycle your C# code goes through, from launch to execution on the processor, with a focus on what happens inside the JIT. We'll cover its intermediate language, optimization phases, and even compiler features like SSA and Value Numbering.
