- I remember 2-3 years ago that programs compiled with gcc on Sun 4
- (Sparc) machines ran slower than programs compiled with cc. At that
- time I made a simple test with gawk, and found that indeed it was
- slower with gcc, so gave up using gcc.
-
- Just now I tried gcc v. 1.40 and it seems that gawk and mawk are still
- slower with gcc than cc. Will that be true of most c programs?
- Anything in the works to make gcc executables faster?
