Have you measured object size reduction factors? Compilation > time differences? I made just simple combine.c test. Compile time went down from 12 seconds to 2 seconds and .o file was about 500Kb as compared to 190kb w/o -flto and 1.3MB w/o lto but with -g. So slim LTO seems smaller than -g objects but still a lot bigger than binary.
Once I resolve the other issues, I will try to get some data on firefox build. Thanks! Honza
