    cmd/internal/gc: separate func-only Node fields · 57279ba7
    Josh Bleecher Snyder authored
    Nodes dominate gc's memory usage, but many fields are only used
    for a subset of kinds of nodes. This change pulls out fields
    used only for func-like Nodes. This reduces the size of the
    Node struct on a 64-bit machine from 504 bytes to 416 bytes (-17%).
    
    Compiling the runtime, 1.5% of nodes have a non-nil Func.
    In html/template, 2.7% of nodes have a non-nil Func.
    
    This change introduces an extra alloc and associated GC overhead
    when Func is non-nil. However, when Func is nil, as it almost
    always is, it spares the garbage collector scanning some Node fields.
    Empirically, this change appears to be roughly neutral with regard to GC.
    
    To keep the diff readable, this CL uses an embedded Func field.
    A subsequent CL will unembed the field.
    
    Passes toolstash -cmp.
