I think the most sensible would be fixing up gold multithreading and enabling it by default. We already get most of the benefits of multicore architectures by running multiple compile jobs in parallel (yes, I know you are focusing on cases where that for some reason doesn't work, but it is still the case in most situations). The main bottleneck is linking. The code is even already there in gold and have been for years, it just haven't been deemed ready for being enabled by default.
Is anyone even working on that? Best regards Allan
