gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
And

Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.0.4/specs
Configured with: ../configure --enable-libgcj
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.0.4
Kernel version: SunOS 5.8 Generic 108528-15 April 2002


>Description:
WE have here two simple C++ programs (to compare efficiency)
[For the record:
 HelloWorld1.cc is doing

int
main()
{
  for (int i = 0; i < 1000000; ++i) {
    std::cout << "Hello World!" << std::endl;
  }
  return 0;
}


and HelloWorld2.cc is doing

int
main()
{
  for (int i = 0; i < 1000000; ++i) {
    std::cout << std::string("Hello World!") << std::endl;
  }
  return 0;
}


The problem is that any version of these runs 8 times FASTER
if compiled under g++ 2.95.3 (CSA-E450 Solaris 8)
than if compiled under g++ 3.0.4 (CSD-E3500 Solaris 8)
[note that only CSD can run both executables, with a minor speedup]



and timing was stored in corresponding files with  -time-cs[ad]

more HW1-2.95.3-time-csa
8.0u 4.0s 0:12 94% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
more HW1-3.0.4-time-csd
57.0u 46.0s 1:45 97% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w

more  HW2-2.95.3-time-csd
11.0u 3.0s 0:15 88% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
more  HW2-3.0.4-time-csd
62.0u 47.0s 1:50 98% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
>How-To-Repeat:
Compilethis source file once with gcc version 2.95 and once with version 3.0.4 and msure its runtime in both cases.
