Hi,
to give some perspective to the discussion on memory usage, I generated
comparsion of 4.2 branchpoint to 4.3 branchpoint from logs of our memory
tester. I would say it is quite pleasing to see that 4.3 is not really
regression relative 4.2 in most tests like it was custom in previous
releases, but still we ought to do a lot better ;)
There is posssibly interesting 35% regression at -O1 combine.c...
