I'd expect to see some improvement, based solely on the bugs fixed recently by the optimizer team. No idea how much, but I know that Martin builds with PGO, and that's also been improved recently. > (Though updating project files to that is almost certainly a bigger project > than the gcc update.) No idea what the gcc update involved, but this is only accurate if it took less than two minutes :-) I've upgraded the CPython projects before and everything worked fine.
