Uh, OK. My wife wants to thank you for saving me a weekend. Hummmm.

AFAICS, MSVC is still *much* faster compiling than GCC (between two and four times faster). Also, MSVC generated code is smaller and runs faster, but the difference is not as big as it used to be.

Well no, according the the "average" page gcc 4.6.3 maxes out at "1.18" for runtime while msvc 2010 maxes out at "1.24".

But, y'know, benchmarks and all that...
