Hi,
I am using the Stream KernelAnalyzer 1.6 to profile a matrix multiplication IL shader. I am getting a suspiciously high GPR usage: 31 registers on HD5870.
After looking closely, I noticed that the problem was coming from the column-row multiplication loop being unrolled. The compiler is not reusing registers from one unrolled iteration to another which could be done since the livenesses don't interfere. It seems other people have found a similar problem:

This problem can be confirmed by deleting some of the unrolled iterations and running the SKA again. I can get the shader down to 14 registers by doing this.
I am attaching the code in case this helps. I am running SDK 2.2 (SKA 1.6) on a Windows Vista 32-bits machine without any graphics card.
Thank you.
