I think splitting the submission into separate patches was a good idea
and FWIW, I did read all 63 of them. I agree with Eric Botcazou about
your way of posting them in a thread.
My only critisism is that surely, all these improvements weren't carried
out just last week. I.e. some of them could have been submitted earlier,
thereby making them available to users earlier as well as preventing
duplicate work. An example is PR target/28181, which was reported half a
year ago and at least three people worked on fixing. So once your patches
are ready, go ahead and submit them.
