Well, yes. As I wrote "Plus, a lot of that slowdown probably is due to
libstdc++-v3 and its much more standards compliant implementation of
iterators etc."
But, frankly, as I user I'm mainly seeing the following: It's exactly
the same source that compiles without warning under both compilers, and
one compiler takes significantly more time and more memory to generate a
binary that is both larger and slower.
