From what I can tell, a significant amount of extra compile time on
Itanium is spent in the scheduler. I've compared the number of
schedulable insns on the trunk and on the df branch, and it appears we
give the scheduler more freedom on the branch. This inevitably takes
time (the scheduler is the slowest part of GCC-on-Itanium already,
anyway).

I can guess it is mostly overall regression.
It is. There are a few known common bottlenecks that still need fixing.
