Well, but you are globally overriding options even for the parts with profile. The whole point of profile-feedback is to get at the interesting parts (those with non-zero counters). What you say is that not enough parts of the compiler care for the actual profiles and thus portions with all-zero counters are treated as if they were hot? Then better fix that.
