Hi! 
	gcc-2.95 does not perform very well compared to egcs1.1.2 on a win32
platform. Please have a look at this small benchmark collection :
 <<tench.zip>> Take care : it contains a pure win32 makefile!
	Any idea why gcc-2.95 is so slow?
	Regards,
	William

[ANN] gcc-2.95 1999-06-09 dev snapshot for Cygwin

[Mumit Khan]

I've uploaded GCC-2.95 (upcoming merged egcs and gcc release) dev snapshot
binaries for Cygwin for those who want to see what's new and what's hot.
Since the release of gcc-2.95 has been pushed back quite a bit due to the
merging of FSF GCC and EGCS GCC, this may be a chance to check out the
new features without having to wait a few weeks (at the very least).

This is *only* meant for developers who may want to try out the newer
features that will be part of the real release (such as the capability
to create COM interfaces); expect problems, bugs, and so on. Please don't 
download unless you're willing to live on the edge.

I have no idea. It would be very useful if you can send a few testcases 
to egcs@egcs.cygnus.com.

> On which egcs branch is it based?

GCC and EGCS are now merged, so egcs branch is irrelevant. The gcc-2.95
branch is based mostly on the egcs mainline (not the egcs-1.1.x branch).

Hello!
	I did some benchmarks in order to compare egcs 1.1.2 with gcc 2.95.
The last one is much slower than egcs 1.1.2 (except in one test). Why are
the binaries (with full optimisation) so slow with gcc 2.95?
On which egcs branch is it based?

	William
