Only on Faster Machines.
If you only build c and c++, then it seems fast on a lower 1.2 celeron.
If you use a Sparc or other CPU, where speeds are greater than 3 GB,
then sure, it seams fast. But it ain't. Only speedup is processor power.

In fact, I finally got around to building gcc-head, and comparing it
to gcc 3.3.2.
To say that the results are disappointing would be an understatement:
Time for a kernel compile, gcc 3.3.2:
276.63s real 193.01s user 26.86s system
with gcc-head:
341.31s real 213.25s user 27.87s system
Exact same options, basically -O2.
Now, tell me again that GCC is getting faster...
