abstract = "There has been much recent interest in genetic
improvement of programs. However, genetic improvement
has yet to scale beyond toy laboratory programs. We
seek to overcome this scalability barrier. We evolved a
widely-used and highly complex 50000 line system,
seeking improved versions that are faster than the
original, yet at least as good semantically. Our
approach found a version that is 70 times faster (on
average) and is also a small semantic improvement on
the original.",
