Bug is confirmed with GCC 4.8 (trunk revision 192219). Problem areas at -O1: alias stmt walking : 31.68 (36%) usr tree DSE : 10.83 (12%) usr CSE : 9.02 (10%) usr reload CSE regs : 23.17 (26%) usr TOTAL : 87.99 Problem areas at -O2 are pretty much the same: alias stmt walking : 47.29 (28%) usr tree DSE : 10.84 ( 7%) usr CSE : 9.12 ( 5%) usr CSE 2 : 34.66 (21%) usr reload CSE regs : 45.37 (27%) usr TOTAL : 166.12 GCC 4.3.2 has the same problems at the RTL level: tree DSE : 11.60 (17%) usr CSE : 19.74 (28%) usr CSE 2 : 12.63 (18%) usr reload CSE regs : 8.49 (12%) usr TOTAL : 69.68 tree-DSE, CSE and reload-CSE are both quadratic in the number of instructions per basic block, and all basic blocks in this test case contain O(10^3) instructions. The alias stmt walking slowness is a regression, but I suspect there a dup that Rick Biener already knows about...
