It does seem that the optimizations Andy Fingernut did by hand are
pretty braindead, and need to be done automatically. If I did change
the compiler to do these, what are the chances of my improvements
getting merged into the main tree? Otherwise, such work would be
utterly pointless.

We did catch him, hehe. It wasn't my intension, actually. If you look
at my posting history here in chronological order, this will become
very clear. Originally I asked if achieving Java's speed was possible
consistently, which grew into the discussion of what Rich claimed or
didn't claim (because of others not remembering this claim).

Sometimes, good people lie too. I dig it.

Are you one of the moderators? Moderation doesn't work btw. If I
wanted to break your attempt at speech and opinion oppression, I could
easily do so. Like gun control, you are just inconveniencing those who
are willing to play by the rules, while they are so willing.
