Compiler optimizations are transformations that are applied on the source code to improve its performance. Many times its a complex task to choose which optimizations set must be used, so, usually there are chosen optimization levels given by the compiler. However, these optimization levels are not always good enough for all programs. Thus, it is needed to search for sets to improve specific programs. Currently the Best10 algorithm is one of the best algorithms to mitigate the optimizations selection problem. This algorithm requires one reduced search space to infer which are the optimization sets that must be applied during the compilation of programs. This work presents the impact of the use of different search space creation strategies used by the Best10 algorithm. The results shows that sophisticated strategies do not always provide the best results.
