I thought so too, but breaking the file is rather difficult as I try
to take
advantage of extreme inlining and so everything expands into one huge
c file.
I'd like to see if this is possible:
Put the function with computed gotos in its own section 'XX'
compile the file once with -fgcse. Output a1.o
compile the file second time with -fno-gcse. Output a2.o
Use a *linker script?* to remove the section XX from a1.o
and take it from a2.o and replace it in there.
If anybody knows any hints to accoplish that, please send e-mail.
Thanks,

Hi.
I have a program that uses computed gotos.
Should I use -fno-gcse?
The situation is that there is one very important function with
computed
gotos and about 300 others without!
Isn't there a way to disable fgcse for that one function and allow
it for
the rest of the code?
With fno-gcse the program is about 0.3% faster, so I can't tell for
sure
what's the right thing to do here.
break the file into two parts, one that can be -fgcse'd and one that
can be -fno-gcse'd
