Compared to some of the application systems we deal with gcc is large,
but not very large. We have several Ada users with millions of lines of

Do you "sell" the -flto option to your customers?
Do you suggest your big customers to recompile their 10MLOC Ada code with -flto?
Did they (or you) already try doing that?
Or should they use -fwhopr?
Or perhaps they prefer a bit faster compilation time, only using -O1?
