[fpc-devel] x86_64 Optimizer Overhaul

[J. Gareth Moreton]

 Thanks for the feedback.  Do you have a reproducible case, and does it
fail on Linux or Windows?  I'll have a look for the infinite loops in the
meantime.

 "make all" work well on linux.

 Compiler options -O3 and -O4 are broken.
 It was possible to compile my program, but program at some point went into
never ending loop - cpu usage 100% and response zero.

 Compiling my speed test program using -O2, optimizations made by Overhaul,
was speed lose by 2% comparing to current trunk.  I guess, optimizations
is good for compiler itself, but no so much for user programs.
