Forget about talk, talk is cheap.  What I have _never_ seen, are real
performance numbers for real applications and/or micro benchmarks,
that show what the numbers are.  A complete analysis would include
stuff like -fhuge-objects as well, as well, as cleanup up stupid
codegen around virtual calls before getting numbers.

Just my $0.02.
