As seen here
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=694.407.0
there was a 4% exec time slowdown of the exchange2_r SPEC 2017
benchmark when compiled with -O2 -g -flto=128 with PGO on an Zen3
machine. I bisected it to r17-2002-gf2a4e2540221cb.

tree-optimization/126008 - redo PR125730 fix
This is a regression against GCC 14, newer versions are slower. See the
comparison
here:
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=707.407.0&plot.1=713.407.0&plot.2=705.407.0&plot.3=700.407.0&plot.4=709.407.0&plot.5=711.407.0&plot.6=740.407.0&plot.7=892.407.0&plot.8=1056.407.0&plot.9=1161.407.0&plot.10=1481.407.0&plot.11=694.407.0&
There were also these exchange2_r slowdowns in the same timeframe (so probably
caused by the same commit):
4% Zen2 -O2 -g -flto=128 with PGO
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=687.407.0
4% Zen5 -O2 -g -flto=128 with PGO
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=1244.407.0
4% Zen5 -O2 -march=x86-64-v3 -g -flto=128
