Bug ID: 65328
Summary: GCC perf issue when compiling templates - 120x slower
than Clang
Product: gcc
Version: 4.9.2
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: juchem at gmail dot com
Debian's g++ 4.9.2 and gcc 4.8.4 are extremely slow at compiling some
templates.
They take more than 1h to compile the same code that Clang 3.4 needs 39
seconds.
How to reproduce:
$ git clone https://github.com/facebook/fatal.git \
&& cd fatal && git checkout -b dev origin/dev \
&& clang++-3.4 --version && time clang++-3.4 -Wall -std=c++11 -I . \
fatal/type/benchmark/prefix_tree_benchmark.cpp \
&& g++-4.8 --version && time g++-4.8 -Wall -std=c++11 -I . \
fatal/type/benchmark/prefix_tree_benchmark.cpp \
&& g++-4.9 --version && time g++-4.9 -Wall -std=c++11 -I . \
fatal/type/benchmark/prefix_tree_benchmark.cpp
