A new method of loop performance analysis

It is difficult to complete the accurate analysis of loop performance using current procedure. The method uses the idea of feedback optimization, combined with some static analysis method, without the support of hardware architecture. Experimental result manifest that the method can complete accurate loop-level performance analysis, help the programmers finding the hot-spot and analyzing the program.
