lto issues

[Michael Biebl <mbiebl@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

today I tried compiling systemd v242 (on Debian sid) once using lto
(-Db_lto=true) and once without lto (-Db_lto=false).

The lto build took approximately twice as long on my laptop (using
dpkg-buildpackage, which introduces a bit of overhead):

lto:
real 11m22,605s
user 37m9,675s
sys 2m51,041s

nolto:
real 6m35,615s
user 18m51,782s
sys 2m12,934s

That's kinda expected. What suprised me though is that using lto
produced larger binaries:
