Optimizations:

Lots of backends support prefetching of array elements
in loops.

Underflow-forced-to-zero enabled at -ffast-math for lots of targets.

Fortran:

libf2c a shared library, which enables shared library components based
on Fortran code.

libf2c supports reading/writing of > 2Gbyte files on 32-bit targets.

frontend allows arrays up to 2 Gbyte in size (2**29 REALS, 2**28 DOUBLE
PRECISION or 2**27 COMPLEX*16 values).
