Another thought would be to weigh the effect of potential patches to tcc
on compile-time and run-time performance. In this benchmark, tcc 0.9.27
has the fastest compile and run times compared to several other compilers:
https://github.com/nordlow/compiler-benchmark
It mentions that gcc and clang get "significantly worse performance with
each new release". While I can't personally vouch for the quality of
that benchmark, the idea would be to have _some_ benchmark as a line in
the sand that would help keep tcc from bloat when considering modifications.
