profiledbootstrap success!


Hi!

I never thought this could make that big difference, but using
BOOT_CFLAGS="-g -O2 -march=athlon -fomit-frame-pointer" make
profiledbootstrap instead of BOOT_CFLAGS="-g -O2 -march=athlon" make
bootstrap yields these timings for my favorite POOMA testcase for 3.4:

bootstrap:
real    3m50.475s
user    3m36.080s
sys     0m6.620s

profiledbootstrap -fomit-frame-pointer:
real    3m30.830s
user    3m18.640s
sys     0m5.560s

this is a 10% improvement in compilation speed (at -O2 -ffast-math
-funroll-loops)!

I'll try a profiledbootstrap with -O3 now.

Richard.
