Description Matt Ginsberg 2006-07-25 18:42:50 UTC
Description of problem:

Seems to be a symbol table issue.  Linker proceeds at normal speed if linking
binaries compiled with 4.0 from FC4 (this is reported by others; I haven't
verified it).  Linker proceeds at normal speed if I use the -s switch.  So it
eems that the 4.1.1 compiler is generating symbol tables that the 4.1.1 linker
is having difficulty processing.  I'm seeing a 10x-20x slowdown in linking speeds.
