does -g impact the performance of -O?  In some compilers, -g turns

The only difference in performance is the extra time needed to link the larger
object files.  I've seen SGI compilers with a similar option, where -g means
turn off optimization, and -g2 means leave it on and accept the loss of some
information.  This is one of the advantages of gcc/g77, that it is one of the
fastest running compilers with debug.
