--- Comment #2 from GCC Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Richard Biener <[email protected]>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:a9b19ded78ca2dd8f66b355b05ebbbb149c2d320 commit r17-4808-ga9b19ded78ca2dd8f66b355b05ebbbb149c2d320 Author: Richard Biener <[email protected]> Date: Thu Oct 1 09:21:30 2026 +0200 tree-optimization/127686 - mis-applied -O2 vector cost model heuristic With -O2 and it's default very-cheap vectorizer cost model we apply the heuristic that even when the vector loop is only executed once vectorization should be profitable. But that is applied even when the number of iterations is constant where we already assess profitability over the whole run. So do not apply the former heuristic in this case. PR tree-optimization/127686 * tree-vect-loop.cc (vect_analyze_loop_costing): Do not require a single vector iteration to be profitable iff the number of scalar iterations is constant.
