As far as I know "g" and "rmi" are equivalent, yes.  "g" is easier to
type and read if you use it a lot (only ancient targets really); the
compiler will probably become somewhat slower for those targets, and
perhaps somewhat faster for all others.  Hard to say without doing the
work and measuring the result :-)
