------- Comment #9 from pault at gcc dot gnu dot org 2006-05-20 20:10 ------- I have been writing to Dylan and Daniel, cc'd to you but your copies bounce. The upshot of the exchange is that on an Athlon1700, the spec2006 testcase runs on tonto-1.0 in 1hour 5minutes with gfortran -O3 -ffast-math and 1hour 19minutes with ifort-9.0 -O3 (fast math built is default)...
This is very pleasing indeed; it's a tribute to your efforts and those of various of the gang, who have worked like stink on the dependency analysis, the integration with the backend and inlining of intrinsics. gfortran is a bit like a Ferarri - bad news on a cold morning but it chews up tarmac when it's running! My intention is to get tonto-2.1 running with gfortran. If you have time, I'd love you to do likewise. Paul -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27662
