Hrmph. Well something weird is going on, but it might indeed involve
me being confused about debug options of the compiler itself. How can
one find out which build options were used for clang/llvm compiler +
libraries? My earlier reports were from a little machine at home, so
let's try again on an i9-9900 CPU @ 3.10GHz (a bit snappier) running
Debian 12, again using packages from apt.llvm.org:
17 ~198s
16 ~14s
15 ~11s
OK so even if we ignore the wild outlier it is getting significantly
slower. But... huh, there goes the big jump, but at a different
version than I saw with FBSD's packages. Here's what perf says it's
doing:
