But 1% of speed is about 1.5 year of the whole GCC team work so even 10% is more than GCC can improve in nearby years. With LD_DEBUG=all one can see the whole startup part of ld.so being skipped on prelinked executables so apparently prelink saves some work. > Personally, I would consider prelink a 'ok, we have everything working > now, and we want to look at making it faster' instead of enabling it > before everything is working or building. I agree That makes sense (although I do not think the prelink issues will be ARM specific and they are already resolved on other arches; I may be wrong).
