--- Comment #8 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The drastic slowdown started with r225189 We can't realistically revert that, so we'll have to find a way to make the FE faster. I don't really know what I'm talking about, but I like this idea: (In reply to Richard Biener from comment #3) > I wonder if some trivial caching of "last elements overload set" during > initializer processing could speed up things dramatically and avoid > generating so much garbage > (we don't GC during a single check_initializer call).
