What I did exactly was:
./bootstrap --gnulib-srcdir=/home/padraig/git/gnulib; ./configure 
--enable-gcc-warnings; make

However now having worked on another branch and switched back
and repeated the above, I can't reproduce :(
I'd chalk this down to build issues though I can't see what's changed.

$ ./src/du -hs ~/f8/gcc
2.9G    /home/padraig/f8/gcc

$ find ~/f8/gcc -printf "%D:%i\n" | sort -t: -k2,2n | tail -n10

$ df -T ~/f8/gcc

There is no significant difference in speed between
the old new and your new memory efficient one.

cheers,
Pádraig.
