Note that a faster GCC would also make GCC development go significantly quicker, since every developer has to do a full bootstrap and regression run before checking in non-trivial changes. The world is not black and white, it is shades of gray. Compilation time matters to some people, and I'm not in the slightest suggesting that it should trump code correctness. I don't know where anyone got that idea from what I've been saying.
