after starting the thread I had found the -timing option. So, last
night I timed the compiler stages for different numbers of
attributes. With 15 attributes I had to stop the compiler process,
because it was thrashing and there were no more other processes I
could kill... even left emacs! ;-)

I will try your changes soon.

Marko
