This is not an insignificant bit of information.  I think I missed
that on your first email.

Oh, well, then let me tell you that you aren't likely to see anyone do
anything about such reports.  One cannot, and will not get either
fast, or tight code with no optimizations.  We have no plans of ever
changing this.  Hence, there is little reason to examine a report like
this.

I kinda see where your coming from.  There should be a rough
equivalence between them...  its just that there are more pressing
issues that are more important.

Sorry.
