It will take roughly twice as much memory. This is just the cost of doing business faster. I'll work on the time regression. And please change the summary of this bug to something sane like "points-to analysis too slow" The algorithm is cubic in the worst case, and you simply can't do anything about this. :) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30052
