I am coming a bit late to this discussion, but I would like to inject the
viewpoint that 'performance' (however defined)
isn't the only criterion by which we should just judge what Fedora
produces. At least for Fedora Workstation, being
a useful system for developers with working debugging and profiling tools
should have some weight too.
And I doubt that you'd be able to notice a 'smaller than 1% slowdown' on
your system.
Maybe not, but even ~1% is still an unacceptable slowdown. It would take
about a year for the compiler to catch up.
