Yes > I wonder if you can re-measure with our patching undone but then with > -fno-strict-aliasing (though I think that only was required with LTO). > The difference indeed goes away :-/ The current code we're benchmarking (when not using LTO) is slower in both cases :-/ > How large are the objects sorted in mcf?
