Just a random idea to even more improve simulation speed in GHDL:
Using Link Time Optimisation to inline parts of the GRT library.

-GCC version >4.5 support Link Time Optimisation (LTO)
-Alternatively LLVM code can be generated from a GCC frontend using
the DragonEgg project (http://dragonegg.llvm.org/), LLVM is also a
compiler middle-end/backend that support LTO.

SVN r116 and r118 are commits about LLVM, but I don't know if it still
works on recent versions of GCC/DragonEgg.
