Thank you for this.  I don't use distcc.  On an AM4 MoBo with DDR4 I get 29% 
slower times if I enable LTO when emerging gcc, which is to be expected.

       merge time: 24 minutes and 14 seconds.

Compared to your LTO times my PC is ~12% slower, which is surprising.  I was 
expecting yours would show a ~25% improvement.  I wonder what performance 
boost you'd get with the new AMD V-cache driver in the kernel and if this 
would be realisable by a compiler.  o_O
