I'll remove "-g".

Sure. Generally more optimization makes compilation slower. Sometimes
a lot slower. This depends on the compiler.

It is not properly documented. In some versions of gcc the optimizer
had a bug that was avoided by using this argument. This was before
2000, I don't know in what gcc version this was fixed. There are also
comments that removing the option doesn't make the executable faster.
