I'm not going to argue with you on this again, but suffice it to say
multiple GNOME developers have come out and said they need this
feature to do performance work.

The item where we take a significant performance hit is Python, and
that's going to opt-out:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python3.11/pull-request/95

For what it's worth, frame pointers are required on other operating
systems for precisely this reason. Linux is the odd duck out and it
causes us many problems for real-time profiling, performance analysis,
and other development tasks.

If you want more performance gains, you need to be able to observe
real workloads in real environments and see where the bottlenecks are.

I'm confident that over the course of the next year, we'll recover
performance that was lost by FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 and frame pointers as
technology improves and we get used to having these by default.
