Better SPARC Performance
|
Usage of optimizations with -O in Sun Studio 9 can improve applications by up to 40% over Sun Studio 8 .
|
|
Better Xeon and AMD Performance
|
Runtime performance for applications generated for the Solaris x86 platform is now up to 60% faster. SSE and SSE2 optimizations are available for Pentium-compatible Intel and AMD chips.
|
|
New Xeon and AMD High Performance Features
|
Fortran 90/95 and the Sun Performance Library are now available for the Solaris x86 platform making it easy to deploy high performance applications on IA32 and AMD32-based systems.

|
Simplified Debugging
|
Graphical user interface makes it easy to access advanced debugging features. Set breakpoints, examine variables, and navigate the call stack -- all via the debugger's convenient menus and buttons. Slash turnaround time for fixes and achieve greater debugging productivity with Fix and Continue. You can even debug optimized, parallelized code, as well as mixed languages (C, C++, Fortran, and Java) seamlessly.

Performance Analysis Tools
|
Help assess the performance of your program, identify potential performance problems, and identify the section of the code where the problems occur.
|
|
Native Connector Tool
|
Wraps C and C++ functions and data objects and exposes them as Java classes, enabling the deployment of C/C++ code as services.
|
|
Multi-threaded Applications
|
You can build powerful applications with Sun Studio 9 Open MP 2.0 support for C, C++ and Fortran code. (SPARC platform only)
