             Bug #: 54135
           Summary: Dhrystone 2 test performance has seriously decreased
                    in recent GCC releases
    Classification: Unclassified

           Version: 4.7.1

According to Phoronix Test Suite 4, Dhrystone 2 test from BYTE Unix Benchmark
has become significantly slower in recent GCC releases.

GCC 4.4.6 ~ 28 000 000 marks
GCC 4.7.1 ~ 23 000 000 marks

I.e. ~ 22% slower.

Presumably the following GCC flags were used: -O2 -march=native
