--- Comment #21 from Steven Bosscher <steven at gcc dot gnu.org> 2012-08-06 15:36:04 UTC --- (In reply to comment #20) Yay, it's always nice to be right the first time when diagnosing a problem. The tree loop optimizers spend 285s out of 1360s total compile time (with my flatten hack and ifcvt patch applied) in compute_global_livein. That's 21% of the total compile time. I have a few ideas for how to fix this.
