I was at Linaro Connect last week of course. I took a look at this issue this week. I don't see any measurable performance change on SPEC CPU2006 for falkor, so the change looks OK to me. In general, I'm not too concerned about changes like this, as I'm watching the FSF GCC tree, and will make appropriate changes to the falkor tuning structure as necessary to maintain good performance.
