+/* Print a suggested function ordering based on the profiling data.
+
+ We perform 4 major steps when ordering functions:
+
+ * Group unused functions together and place them at the
+ end of the function order.
+
+ * Search the highest use arcs (those which account for 90% of
+ the total arc count) for functions which have several parents.
+
+ Group those with the most call sites together (currently the
+ top 1.25% which have at least five different call sites).
+
+ These are emitted at the start of the function order.
+
+ * Use a greedy placement algorithm to place functions which
+ occur in the top 99% of the arcs in the profile. Some provisions
+ are made to handle high usage arcs where the parent and/or
+ child has already been placed.
+
+ * Run the same greedy placement algorithm on the remaining
+ arcs to place the leftover functions.
+
+
+ The various "magic numbers" should (one day) be tuneable by command
+ line options. They were arrived at by benchmarking a few applications
+ with various values to see which values produced better overall function
+ orderings.
+
+ Of course, profiling errors, machine limitations (PA long calls), and
+ poor cutoff values for the placement algorithm may limit the usefullness
+ of the resulting function order. Improvements would be greatly appreciated.
+
+ Suggestions:
+
+ * Place the functions with many callers near the middle of the
+ list to reduce long calls.
+
+ * Propagate arc usage changes as functions are placed. Ie if
+ func1 and func2 are placed together, arcs to/from those arcs
+ to the same parent/child should be combined, then resort the
+ arcs to choose the next one.
+
+ * Implement some global positioning algorithm to place the
+ chains made by the greedy local positioning algorithm. Probably
+ by examining arcs which haven't been placed yet to tie two
+ chains together.
+
+ * Take a function's size and time into account in the algorithm;
+ size in particular is important on the PA (long calls). Placing
+ many small functions onto their own page may be wise.
+
+ * Use better profiling information; many published algorithms
+ are based on call sequences through time, rather than just
+ arc counts.
+
+ * Prodecure cloning could improve performance when a small number
+ of arcs account for most of the calls to a particular function.
+
+ * Use relocation information to avoid moving unused functions
+ completely out of the code stream; this would avoid severe lossage
+ when the profile data bears little resemblance to actual runs.
+
+ * Propagation of arc usages should also improve .o link line
+ ordering which shares the same arc placement algorithm with
+ the function ordering code (in fact it is a degenerate case
+ of function ordering). */
