--- Comment #13 from Jeffrey A. Law <law at redhat dot com> ---
I think we've done similar things for Brad's large testcases in the past.  You
want to look at both the edge/bb density as well as the overall size.  ie, a
high density doesn't really hurt if the total cfg is small.

See "is_too_expensive" in gcse.c for the current heuristics to avoid trying
global opts on these kinds of testcases.
