Um, better be sure there really are performance improvements
before you dive in.  One app that I care about runs slower
on gcc-3.4.1 than on gcc-2.95.3.

I'm putting together a performance regression benchmark
suite right now by pulling together all the known microbenchmarks
that run slower on newer versions of gcc, in hopes
of helping make sure that gcc-4.1 resolves most of them.
