kuuul :)))
now compiles in 1:42 !!!! :)))

i replaced -O4 with -O1(not -O2), it compiled and the benchmark is this:

BENCHMARKs: VC:  11.451s VO:   0.017s A:   0.000s Sys:   1.749s = 13.217s
BENCHMARK%: VC: 86.6357% VO:  0.1282% A:  0.0000% Sys: 13.2361% = 100.0000%

but without the above replace the benchmark is this:
BENCHMARKs: VC:  11.347s VO:   0.015s A:   0.000s Sys:   1.586s = 12.948s
BENCHMARK%: VC: 87.6365% VO:  0.1168% A:  0.0000% Sys: 12.2467% = 100.0000%

as i can see, these are almost equivalent, but i don't know what is
exactly means the values that displayed, i didn't find it in the docs,
grep benchmark -i -r *, doesn't gave me much more result!
