Did you made some benchmark on how fast it is realtive to the old
parser?
Just curious :)
Will it be possible to use old parser also for some time, while new
parser is stabilizing in mainline?
Yes -- by using the GCC 3.3 branch.

They cannot coexist.  In fact, that's sort of the point; the new parser
will allow us to rip huge hunks of horrid code out of the C++ front end.
Hunks that are both slow and erroneous.

I've run timings, and I'm seeing no appreciable difference between the
parsers.
