I remember 2-3 years ago that programs compiled with gcc on Sun 4
(Sparc) machines ran slower than programs compiled with cc.  At that
time I made a simple test with gawk, and found that indeed it was
slower with gcc, so gave up using gcc.

Just now I tried gcc v. 1.40 and it seems that gawk and mawk are still
slower with gcc than cc.  Will that be true of most c programs?
Anything in the works to make gcc executables faster?
