Setting this unconditionally doesn't make sense; there may be another
compiler, or another version, or a different set of compiler options
which doesn't have such a dramatic slowdown, and which produces much
slower code in this case. Things need to remain configurable.
Let's fix this particular problem first, and then look for a general
solution once we know the behaviour on all the other machines.
