------- Additional Comments From steven at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-02-06 16:54 ------- Considering the numbers from #44, #48, and #49, I think we can conclude that we are back to the compile times GCC 3.0 used to have. It should be noted that we have a significantly larger memory foot print though, and some of the speedups (especially from GCC 3.2 to GCC 3.3) came from smaller hacks to the GC system (collect less often, etc.). But then, most people just use the compiler with -O[0123] and no fancy --params and similar hacks, so from a user POV this bug really is fixed, mostly. I'm not sure if it is useful to keep this bug open any longer.
