------- Comment #56 from lucier at math dot purdue dot edu 2008-01-18 01:38 ------- gcc is now 5-6 times faster than it was nearly two years ago when this was first reported; many changes have made significant improvements in cpu time.
But Steven Bosscher's patch from December still improved things more on this test case. In particular, on 12/20/2007, without the patch, CPU time from http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=14799 was TOTAL : 300.21 19.16 319.52 778432 kB After Steven Bosscher's patch http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34400#c28 it was TOTAL : 210.97 15.80 226.88 778432 kB and today it's TOTAL : 281.08 18.03 299.41 776514 kB Would it still be a good idea to apply Steven's patch? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26854
