The reason to choose FDO was so GRAPHITE can concentrate its computing
budget on the hot parts of a program (which profile estimation isn't
good enough identifying), reducing its compile-time cost.

-Ofast isn't supposed to enable passes over -O3 so you're suggesting
to enable it with -O3 which I think is a bit premature.  But we can
try doing that and revert at the end of stage3 if problems are just
too big.
