golang 1.8工具链改进
本文是关于1.8开发周期中Go工具链改进的进度报告。
现在已经是11月了，golang1.8只剩最后的几个修改列表，剩余的会移到1.9发布，1.8版本于2017年2月发布。
对于本系列的更多内容，请阅读我上一篇关于9月份的Go 1.8工具链改进的文章，以及我在1.7版对Go工具链改进的文章。
更快编译
自从2015年8月发布的Go 1.5以来，编译时间显着长于Go 1.4。 解决这种缓慢的工作开始于Go 1.7，并且仍在进行。
Robert Griesemer和Matthew Dempsky致力于重写一个更快的解析器，并删除了许多从以前版本遗留的基于yacc的解析器继承的包级别的变量。 这个解析器产生一个新的抽象语法树，而编译器的其余部分需先前的yacc语法树。 对于1.8，新的解析器必须将其输出转换为先前的语法树，以供编译器的其余部分使用。 即使使用这个额外的转换步骤，新的解析器也不比以前的版本慢，并且计划在Go 1.9中删除这个转换过程。

Compile time for full build relative to Go 1.4.3
Go 1.8的目标是比1.7平均减少15%的编译时间。 与两个月前报告的3-5％的改进相比，还需要作出更多努力。
注意：jujud，kube-controller-manager和gogs的基准脚本在线。 请自己尝试并报告您的发现。
代码生成提速
go1.7周期的主要特点是64位Intel的新SSA后端。 在Go 1.8中，SSA后端已经推广到Go支持的所有其他架构，并且旧的后端代码已被删除。
amd64凭借是最受欢迎的生产架构，一直是新特性最快支持的。 正如我在几个月前报道的，比较Go 1.8和Go 1.7在英特尔架构上的结果显示，代码生成，转义分析和对std库的优化有很大改进。

只是重新编译代码就能有相当大的改进。
Defer and cgo的提升
如果，在go1.8，根据一些基准测试显示，Austin将使用延迟的开销减少了一半。
即使defer是否可用于热代码路径的问题依然没有完全解决，但是根据一些基准测试，在go1.8 Austin(开发者)将使用延迟的开销减少了一半。
runtime包基准测试结果不太好。
name old time/op new time/op delta
Defer-4 101ns ± 1% 66ns ± 0% -34.73% (p=0.000 n=20+20)
Defer10-4 93.2ns ± 1% 62.5ns ± 8% -33.02% (p=0.000 n=20+20)
DeferMany-4 148ns ± 3% 131ns ± 3% -11.42% (p=0.000 n=19+19)
在最常见的情况下，defer提高了三分之一性能，其中语句关闭不超过一个单一的变量。
此外，David Crawshaw的一项优化降低了cgo代码路径近一半的开销。

CgoNoop-8 93.5ns ± 0% 51.1ns ± 1% -45.34% (p=0.016 n=4+5)
One more thing
Go 1.7支持64位mips平台，感谢Minux和Cherry的工作。 然而，却不支持不那么强大但丰富的32位mips平台。 感谢弗拉基米尔·斯特凡诺维奇（Vladimir Stefanovic）的工作，Go 1.8将支持32位mips。
% env GOARCH=mips go build -o godoc.mips golang.org/x/tools/cmd/godoc
% file godoc.mips
godoc.mips: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, MIPS, MIPS32 version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped虽然有32位mips主机可能太小，无法在本地编译Go程序，您可以随时在您的开发工作站做linux / mips交叉编译。
