Oh, and just to mention the same issue of course plagues
maybe_constant_init which ends up allocating a hash_map 1630776 times
(fixing that doesn't fix any memory-hog but would avoid some needless
cycles spent on this). Similar "simple" patch would be
* constexpr.c (maybe_constant_init): Bail out early
for CONSTANT_CLASS_P.

===================================================================
--- gcc/cp/constexpr.c (revision 245119)
+++ gcc/cp/constexpr.c (working copy)
@@ -4916,6 +4919,8 @@ maybe_constant_init (tree t, tree decl)
t = TARGET_EXPR_INITIAL (t);
if (!potential_nondependent_static_init_expression (t))
/* Don't try to evaluate it. */;
+ else if (CONSTANT_CLASS_P (t))
+ return t;
else
t = cxx_eval_outermost_constant_expr (t, true, false, decl);
if (TREE_CODE (t) == TARGET_EXPR)
which is even eventually safer because it's after
the !potential_nondependent_static_init_expression (if that can
be ever true for CONSTANT_CLASS_P t).
Then the other issue noticed is that we always copy every
CONSTRUCTOR at least once via reshape_init_array.
I think both maybe_constant_value and maybe_constant_init are
low-hanging fruit to fix at this point so waiting for some
guidance on Jakubs concerns (or just take it yourself from here).
