People who worry about compiler optimisation tend to be people who don't build and use their own compilers

Or people who cannot code on an optimizing compiler because they don't understand how it works.

Oh but I do know how to build optimising compilers. Here's one I use almost daily http://barrywatson.se/download/BarrysProlog_x86_64.tar.gz. That one actually includes optimisations based upon a dataflow analysis I've not seen documented elsewhere. I've also worked on optimising compilers that were embedded  in a product you've probably used when making telephone calls. It's the AOT compiler in this product http://www.ericsson.com/ericsson/corpinfo/publications/review/2001_01/files/2001013.pdf.

Now I still stand by my claim. What evidence/experience do you have to back up your claim?
