And I am disagree that it is within compilation time guidelines set
by SC. Ken fixed a big compilation time degradation a few days ago
and preliminary what I see now (comparison with the last merge point)
is
x86_64
SPECInt2000 5.7%
SPECFp200 8.7%
ppc64
SPECInt2000 6.5%
SPECFp2000 5.5%
Itanium
SPECInt2000 9%
SPECFp2000 10.9%
Besides as I understand correctly the SC criteria means that there is
no degradation on code quality. There is code size degradation about
1% and some degradation on SPEC2000 (e.g. about 2% degradation on a
few tests on ia64).
I'll be away for a week, so I'll miss most of the big flamewar, but I'd
just like to throw in my opinion that based on these numbers I don't see
why we're even considering it for inclusion at this point.
I also agree with Vlad's point that it needs to be reviewed before being
committed to mainline.
