Volodymyr Sapsai 0a35cc40b8 [clang][objc] Speed up populating the global method pool from modules.
For each selector encountered in the source code, we need to load
selectors from the imported modules and check that we are calling a
selector with compatible types.

At the moment, for each module we are storing methods declared in the
headers belonging to this module and methods from the transitive closure
of imported modules. When a module is imported by a few other modules,
methods from the shared module are duplicated in each importer. As the
result, we can end up with lots of identical methods that we try to add
to the global method pool. Doing this duplicate work is useless and
relatively expensive.

Avoid processing duplicate methods by storing in each module only its
own methods and not storing methods from dependencies. Collect methods
from dependencies by walking the graph of module dependencies.

The issue was discovered and reported by Richard Howell. He has done the
hard work for this fix as he has investigated and provided a detailed
explanation of the performance problem.

// C Language Family Front-end
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:

If you have questions or comments about Clang, a great place to discuss them is
on the Clang development mailing list:
