Part of #10762.

Four edits, all runtime, no codegen. js_string_coerce and js_jsvalue_to_string_method reached their plain-number arm last, through a seven-way jump table, though is_number() is one range test and the exact complement of the arms it skips. js_number_to_string's admission check forced LLVM to emit a 14-instruction saturating f64u64 cast on a value already proven to be in 0..256, plus a redundant second bound check. format_number_into gains a range-proven i32 arm.

fixture base fix delta
control — bare loop, no conversion 82.0 82.0 0.00%
String(k % 100) 190.0 163.0 −14.2%
n.toString() 536.3 433.0 −19.3%
`${n}` 433.3 413.0 −4.7%
String(k % 1e6) 558.3 540.3 −3.2%
float 1146.6 1136.6 −0.9%
"" + n 264.5 264.5 0.00%

No row regresses. Both arms are flat within 2% across 20k→200k and 500k→5M.

The issue's table needed revising, and this corrects it

The four-way spread in #10762 is two spellings and two value ranges, not four spellings. My fixtures did not hold the value range fixed: the String(n) row used k % 100, entirely inside the 256-entry SMALL_INT_CACHE, while the other three used k % 1000, which misses 74.4% of the time. Measured at both ranges:

Ir/op k % 100 (100% hit) k % 1000 (25.6% hit)
String(n) 190.0 433.3
`${n}` 190.0 433.3
"" + n 213.6 264.5
n.toString() 293.0 536.3

String(n) and the template literal are the same path — same functions, same call counts, same totals to the unit. The 206-against-435 gap I reported was 100% value range. There is no template defect.

n.toString() costs String(n) plus exactly 103.0 at both ranges — flat, so pure dispatch, and that is the #10743-shaped defect. It is a four-frame detour: js_jsvalue_to_string_methodto_string_method_impl (which writes a thread-local one-shot) → js_jsvalue_to_string (which reads and clears it, probes for a JS handle, then walks its own eight-arm ladder) → js_number_coerce. The arithmetic closes exactly: (2 + 33 + 21 + 70) − 31 = 95, plus 8 in main = 103.0.

Also, ~82 Ir/op of every absolute number in the issue's table is harness — the bare loop with no conversion costs 82.0, about 60 of it inline software ToInt32 for the fixture's own |0. The same contamination was found independently in #10761.

Parity is not reached, and the reason is an ABI

Best-of ratios go 15.5× → 12.4× on toString and 5.7× → 4.9× on String.

"" + n never allocates: js_string_concat_value_box returns an f64 and packs a result of ≤5 bytes into SHORT_STRING_TAG. The other three entry points are declared -> *mut StringHeader, so they must allocate a heap string for a three-byte result. Removing that needs _box variants and a codegen change — codegen already NaN-boxes the result immediately after the call, so the information is there.

But "" + n is still 8.3× bun at 264.5 while allocating nothing, so removing the allocation is necessary and not sufficient: parity also needs the conversion inlined at the call site. That is a second, larger change, and I would rather land this and state the gap than half-do it.

Real programs: only one moves, and the profiles say why

text −0.91% (reproducible to two decimal places). tok, sim, graph, records: 0.00%. All four CLI programs ≤0.06% on instructions, with wall clock indistinguishable from noise (load average 31 during the run, ±5% across four min-of-60 rounds with no consistent direction).

The useful finding is why: real perry programs do not use the spellings #10762 measures.

  • csv's profile contains no js_number_to_string and no js_string_coerce at all. Its number formatting goes through js_string_concat_chain at 1,174.8 Ir/call.
  • text's number cost is js_number_to_fixed at 477.9 Ir/call — 10.5% of the whole program by itself, which is more real-program number-formatting cost than everything in this issue combined.

Those two symbols are where the next pass should go.

Gates

perry-runtime 4074 passed / 0 failed; perry-hir clean; perry-codegen manifest_consistency fails identically on base (net/http manifest drift, unrelated). cargo fmt clean; clippy 882 = 882 after cargo clean -p per arm; all three scripts clean and identical. RSS ≤ +1.3%. GC stress 80 runs, 0 failures, with the guarded path provably reached and the fixture byte-compared to node on every run. Node identity unchanged on all four suites — only nest (#10733) and a pre-existing non-numeric probe differ, on both arms.

All seven guards sabotage-proven, each with a named failing output: dropping value >= 0.0 makes String(-1) print "0"; dropping abs() < 2^31 makes String(999999999999999) print "2147483647"; violating the cache bound aborts rc=134. None was unfalsifiable.

… every element access (PerryTS#10718)

An indexed read on an ordinary `Array` cost 87 instructions per element,
against 6 for the identical arithmetic on a `Float64Array` and 16 for node.
None of it was a runtime call: callgrind attributes 88.3 instructions per
element to straight-line code in `main`, of which **56 are loop-invariant
receiver revalidation** re-executed every iteration — the NaN-box tag and
handle-band test, the forwarding-flag follow, and a six-load live-head guard
that re-reads gc_type, gc_flags, obj_flags, a volatile invalidation flag,
length and capacity.

perry already has tiers that hoist exactly this proof into the loop
preheader and version the loop. They were declining at a single gate in
`stmt/loops.rs` — `array_static_type_excluded` — a **declared static type**
test sitting in front of a tier that is otherwise fully runtime-guarded.
`const a: number[] = new Array(400)` reached it and measured 13.4; plain
`new Array(400)` infers `Array<any>` and did not, so ordinary JavaScript
never got the tier it already had.

Separately, and larger: `a[i] += 1` cost 948 instructions per element, 3.7x
the identical `a[i] = a[i] + 1`, and a type annotation did not help.
`lower/expr_assign.rs` minted the compound-assignment spill temporaries as
`Type::Any`, erasing the receiver's array-ness and the index's
integer-ness before codegen could see the statement — which is why no
annotation could recover it. The temporaries now carry the operand types.

  Array read          87.0 -> 13.5   (node 16.3 — perry now wins 1.21x)
  a[i] += 1            948 ->  273
  a[i] += b[i]        1025 ->  347
  bare loop            4.0 ->  4.0   unchanged to the instruction
  Float64Array r/w   6.0/8.0 -> 6.0/8.0   unchanged to the instruction

A particle simulation over four numeric arrays spends 60.9% fewer
instructions (41.21 G -> 16.12 G) and 59% less peak RSS.

The widened tier initially regressed a numeric window inside an otherwise
non-numeric array by 33%, because the array-wide layout walk runs per loop
entry. A window-scoped layout proof is used as a second chance after that
walk declines; both shapes are now 12-13% wins, and arrays that are
non-numeric from slot 0 are unchanged to the instruction.

…ent stores (PerryTS#10718)

An indexed write cost 105 instructions per element with zero runtime calls;
51 of them were loop-invariant receiver revalidation and 42 was a write-barrier
decision provable away from the value type. This widens the store admission the
way PerryTS#10731 widened reads.

a[i] = k + i 105 -> 17.4, a[i] = a[i] + 1 256 -> 24.5, a[i] = a[i] + b[i]
333 -> 35.9. The bare loop, both Float64Array paths and the indexed read are
unchanged to the instruction.

The barrier-stem census probe for idxset.recv_global gains a second statement:
the widened tier made its loop qualify, which would have left that stem with no
live witness. A future multi-statement store tier must re-shape the probe, not
delete it.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01YaNfLEjMRdhCLtk3SB5MdJ
…already had (PerryTS#10743)

Fixes PerryTS#10743. Stacked on PerryTS#10746 (`2b2b89063`), which contains PerryTS#10731.

`a[i] += 1` and `a[i] = a[i] + 1` are the same operation and node compiles both
to the same cost. perry compiled them 11x apart -- 277 instructions per element
against 24 -- and the slow one was the idiomatic spelling.

HIR's `hoist_compound_member_assign` lowers a compound member assignment into two
immutable alias `Let`s plus the store, so the base and the key are each evaluated
exactly once and before the right-hand side. `packed_f64_range_loop_body_collect`
admits exactly ONE statement, so the lowering guaranteed the statement could
never reach the tier that makes the expanded form fast. Annotating the array
changed nothing: the obstacle is the statement count, not type information.

The temporaries stay. They are load-bearing -- an RHS call can reassign the
bindings they were read from, and the store must still land at the index
evaluated before it ran (`a[i] += (() => { i = 2; return 5; })()`). So the fold
is in the MATCHER, and it applies only to the guarded fast clones: the slow clone
lowers the statements as written, so a failed guard and every side exit still
execute the specified evaluation order.

Inside the matched subset the fold is exact, because
`packed_f64_range_loop_pure_expr_collect` is a whitelist that admits no call,
closure, `await`, update or assignment anywhere in the statement -- nothing can
write the locals the aliases read. This needs none of PerryTS#10741's mid-iteration
side-exit discipline: the folded-away statements perform no stores, so there is
nothing to un-do when a guard fails partway.

Per element, fitted across N=10,000 -> 50,000, three interleaved rounds per arm:

  a[i] += 1      277.05 -> 25.46   (node 16.9)
  a[i] -= 1      208.05 -> 27.45   (node 16.9)
  a[i] += b[i]   347.05 -> 35.86   (node 25.8) -- now exactly a[i] = a[i] + b[i]
  a[i] *= 1      206.05 -> 25.45   (node 15.1)
  a[i] |= 0      236.05 -> 52.46   (node 12.7)

The bare loop, both `Float64Array` rows, the indexed read and write and both
expanded spellings are unchanged -- their emitted LLVM IR is byte-identical
between arms, which is a stronger witness than a flat fitted number.

It moves none of the five real programs in PerryTS#10695, and the compiler's own trace
says why: `sim` still reports 3 x `body_not_admissible`, because its inner loop
is five statements containing two `if`s. This admits a body whose extra
statements are compound-assign ALIASES, not a body whose extra statements do
things. That remains PerryTS#10741.

New diagnostic: `PERRY_PACKED_LOOP_TRACE=1` prints
`[range-loop] admitted: compound_assign_alias_fold`. The existing traces report
only DECLINES, so there was no way to show that a fixture claiming to exercise a
guarded path actually reached it -- the exact gap that let PerryTS#10746 ship a GC
stress whose fixtures were all declined before the guard under test ran.

Correctness: 25 differential fixtures (evaluation order with a side-effecting
RHS, getters and setters on the array / on `Array.prototype` / on the index, a
prototype getter that truncates, deletes from or freezes the array mid-loop,
frozen and sealed in sloppy and strict mode, a non-writable index, holes, out of
bounds, past `length`, non-number elements, string `+=`, heap-reference stores,
offset and affine indices, module-global receivers, typed arrays, and all
fifteen compound operators) pass on both arms with byte-identical results.

Guard sabotage: removing the per-store numeric-bits value check produces 27
SIGABRTs across seven heap-limit seeds under `PERRY_GC_FROMSPACE_SCAN_ABORT=1`
(0 unsabotaged), with the from-space scan naming a survivor-space array holding
an un-evacuated nursery pointer through a slot that was never marked dirty -- so
this path does not bypass PerryTS#10746's write barrier, it is the same check on the
same store. Neutering the loop-entry guard turns four fixtures red, all of them
through the fold. The `mutable: false` condition is witnessed by a unit test and
an IR test; the `__cmpd_` name test and the initialiser grammar are scoping
restrictions with unit-test witnesses only, and lowering the folded body in the
slow clone as well turns nothing red -- all three are stated as unwitnessed in
the report rather than claimed.

Gates: node identity 92 identical / 1 diff / 0 compile-fail on both arms with
byte-identical results files (the diff is the pre-existing PerryTS#10733 `nest`
defect); `perry-codegen` lib 1650 pass including the barrier stem census and its
four sabotage twins, with NO census probe change needed; `perry-hir` green;
clippy 470 = 470 with identical per-category counts; `cargo fmt`,
`check_file_size.sh`, `gc_runtime_root_holders.py` and
`local_binding_type_audit.py` clean and identical on both arms; peak RSS worst
case +0.60%.

…e string-coercion ladders (PerryTS#10762)

Four edits, all runtime, no codegen:

`js_string_coerce` and `js_jsvalue_to_string_method` reached their plain-number
arm last, through a seven-way jump table; `is_number()` is one range test and
the exact complement of the arms it skips, so the number arm is hoisted ahead
of them.

`js_number_to_string`'s admission check forced LLVM to emit a 14-instruction
saturating f64->u64 cast on a value already proven to be in 0..256, plus a
redundant second bound check; the cheaper admission lets it emit a 4-instruction
cast, and the cache-fill arm is outlined `#[cold]` so its inlined `format!`
stops costing 15 instructions of prologue in the hit path.

`format_number_into` gains a range-proven i32 arm.

  String(k%100)      190.0 -> 163.0   (-14.2%)
  n.toString()       536.3 -> 433.0   (-19.3%)
  `${n}`             433.3 -> 413.0    (-4.7%)
  String(k%1e6)      558.3 -> 540.3    (-3.2%)
  float              1146.6 -> 1136.6  (-0.9%)
  "" + n             264.5 -> 264.5     0.00%
  control (no conv)   82.0 -> 82.0      0.00%

No row regresses. Both arms are flat within 2% across 20k->200k and 500k->5M.

This does not reach parity with node or bun, and the remaining distance needs an
ABI change rather than another pass: `"" + n` never allocates, because
`js_string_concat_value_box` returns an f64 and packs a short result into
SHORT_STRING_TAG, while the other three entry points are declared
`-> *mut StringHeader` and must allocate a heap string for a three-byte result.

Plain numeric values bypass longer dispatch ladders. Small integral values use direct integer formatting. Small-integer cache misses move to a cold helper. The changelog records benchmark results.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Change: Refactor

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 70ad5

The widened array loop optimization can let a loop that also reads indices like a[i * 2] take the fast path after checking only part of the array, so a non-numeric element outside the checked range could be read as a number and produce wrong results. This should be tightened before merge; the remaining item is a documentation scope correction.

Require an array-wide proof for mixed affine accesses.

When an array has both counter/static and affine accesses, emit_packed_f64_range_guards uses the four-argument guard. Its min_idx and max_idx_exclusive cover only the counter/static window. The affine endpoint check proves only that each affine index is within the live length.

If the array-wide rebuild fails because an affine-only slot contains a non-numeric value, the new fallback can still admit the fast clone after validating only the counter/static window. The affine fact sets allow_holes: false and can set window_validated: true. The affine load then skips its bounds check and performs a raw f64 load without a type or hole check. A read such as a[i * 2] can therefore reinterpret a non-numeric slot outside the guarded window.

Keep the four-argument bounds check for mixed arrays, but require an array-wide numeric proof whenever access.affine is set. Add and declare a wide-proof guard variant, or pass this requirement through the existing guard. Do not use the existing two-argument receiver guard for mixed arrays because counter accesses still require min_idx/max_idx_exclusive validation.

In `@crates/perry-runtime/src/typed_feedback.rs` around lines 1483 - 1490, Update
emit_packed_f64_range_guards and the guard declarations so any access.affine
path requires an array-wide numeric proof in addition to the existing
four-argument min_idx/max_idx_exclusive window check. Preserve the four-argument
validation for mixed counter/static accesses, and do not replace it with the
two-argument receiver guard; ensure affine loads cannot skip type or hole
validation when the array-wide rebuild fails.

Landed via merge train 234 (#10786) as v0.5.1613afd77dbe30.

Your commits are on main unmodified (the train rebases, so SHAs changed; the trees did not). Closing because a train lands content rather than merging the source branch. All four of this chain landed together.

#10774's premise was verified independently rather than read from the comment, since the whole change rests on it: #6991 is CLOSED (2026-08-02), 64c1f56fb ("fix(gc): run the globalThis bootstrap in a no-move window (#7217) (#7249)") is an ancestor of main, and the GcSuppressScope it added is still at object/global_this/populate.rs:78 inside the exact function the gate cites. The gate was guarding a bug that no longer exists.

The boundary you identified is the useful part and it is preserved in the train body: a top-level binding read only at top level is not globalized, and this gate was its whole blocker; one read from inside a function globalizes it and it becomes #7109. That is why three fixtures move and the nine real programs do not — and you verified the mechanism (identical module-init denial mentions on both arms for all nine) rather than just reporting the zero.

Two representation-check flags worth knowing about, both correct absences rather than dropped work:

Validation: nine cheap gates, cargo check --workspace --all-targets under -D warnings, all five pinned artifacts byte-identical before and after, six unit suites with an empty failing set, and a ten-area gap sweep weighted toward #10774's blast radius — gc_ 54, string 49, shape 22, property 18, numeric 15, number 10, tostring 8, template 4, const_ 4, fixed 1 — zero unexplained regressions.
