Standard answer, trivially, it is as good as you want it to be. If
you wanted it to be better, you'd contribute fixes to make it better.
Well... Let's get out of the somehow futile abstract discussion
level: One thing that would
certainly help as a foundation for possible further improvement in
performance in this area
would be to have xgcc contain all the front ends directly linked into
it. Actually the name
libgcc is already taken, but a "compiler as a library" would be
usefull in first place.
It could be a starting point to help avoiding quite a lot of overhead
needed to iterate over
command line options for example.
