a double check that this doesn't result in there being a spike in the results for 2011.10 would be good. If not, historical data needs to be measured for this change given that the said options weren't used while measuring the historical data.
Neither the 2011.09 nor the soon to be published 2011.10 benchmarking was done using these flags. I'm not sure if I'll have the cycles to try this out this month or not. However, I'll add this to next month's testing.
That is good news.
Err - I was actually suggesting not adding it or making sure that the new numbers you get with these options aren't used to plot the historical performance of the toolchain.
