GCC comes with a test suite and a means for submitting results.  May
I suggest that it might be useful to have a timing suite built
similarly, so people can do this kind of thing really easily?  Maybe
someone can tell us if it is too big a job to create such a tool
portably?  I think having it running during stage3 would yield
useful results for comparisons.  A tool that came with GCC would
ensure the data was in a useful format, and that tests were
performed consistently.
