Re: gcc 3.5 integration branch proposal


I don't see how making GCC faster on new machines wouldn't speed
things up on slower machines.  Hmm...  Except for refraining from
recomputing stuff over and over by setting aside some memory to hold
the computed value.  This is fine for machines with lots of memory,

...and for machines with tiny caches, like the mentioned StrongARM.


Not all machines in the world have nicely balanced storage systems,
unfortunately.
