Hi all,

With the range of optimisation passes that are currently part of GCC
(and in modern optimising compilers in general), what would you regard
as the greatest developments in compiler optimisation technology over
the past ten years?

Do you think that is it the development of intermediate forms such as
SSA which has enabled a greater range of optimisations, or are there
any specific optimisations that stand out as major developments?

Any thoughts much appreciated (apologies if this is a bit
abstract/off-topic),

Tom
