We should 1) disable unneeded optimization at -O0 (we do a lot of folding) 2) look at -O1 (it's basically "untuned" for the last years), make it the intended "reasonable optimization with good compile-time and debugging experience" again. For -O1 my idea was to simply _only_ do early optimizations, thus drop any IPA optimizations from it and not execute pass_all_optimizations. In addition to that from early optimizations disable pass_sra_early, pass_early_ipa_sra and pass_convert_switch. Eventually insert a DSE pass early (not really sure). It'll of course change fundamentally what code we emit for -O1, but at least we have strong CSE/DCE passes and early inlining that is able to remove C++ abstraction. Patch that will arrive there half-way (eventually needs fixing so we still handle some special builtins): Index: gcc/tree-optimize.c =================================================================== --- gcc/tree-optimize.c (revision 175205) +++ gcc/tree-optimize.c (working copy) @@ -53,7 +53,7 @@ along with GCC; see the file COPYING3. static bool gate_all_optimizations (void) { - return (optimize >= 1 + return (optimize > 1 /* Don't bother doing anything if the program has errors.
