There are hardware platforms where different calling conventions may be more efficient under different circumstances, and where being able to specify which calling conventions should be used in what circumstances may improve execution efficiency (e.g. in some cases calling convention X may be more efficient than Y for leaf functions, but Y may be more efficient than X for functions which need to call other functions). Should compiler writers not give programmers the opportunity to improve the efficiency of their code by letting them tell the compiler which calling conventions to use in different cases?
