The overhead of carrying VTA notes at -g0 vs not doing so would be
the same 0.07%? I'm just curious because I try to be insisting on that
we do exactly this ;)
I wonder if the above figures apply to compiling a C++ application as well
(I see a lot of VTA notes - more than 50% of all tree instructions - when
compiling tramp3d for example).
Thanks,
Richard.
