You should try and isolate a single BYTEmark test which shows the biggest regression. It's better if you manage to pack the whole test as a single preprocessed source file. Theoretically, this file should be compilable and linkable, and the resulting binary should run for a while doing computations. With this kind of help, we can analyze the regression and see why it's slower with 4.0.0. Giovanni Bajo
