I am afraid to say that I do not agree entirely; the above takes 6 seconds to compile with ifort on my Athlon 1700 "a vapeur". The patch is pretty good but Andrew is right to say in PR25708 that we should not be loading the modules repeatedly. I put a counter in read_module to check how many times each module was read, in the above, and came to the conclusion that gfortran would achieve the same compile time as ifort, if we were to read a module once into a separate symtree and use and abuse it from there. For my sins, I have proposed to do this as a gfortran-4.3 project. Paul -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21130
