I have the impression it's slower too. I will try to make a build without the following linker flags to see if it makes a difference: `-Wl,--dynamicbase -Wl,--high-entropy-va -Wl,--nxcompat -Wl,--tsaware`

Just a question: what exactly is slow? - Compiling a single source (C and/or C++)? - Linking? - Invoking many commands to compile and link?

I also feel it's mostly g++ being slow. In the past there were issues with precompiled headers, maybe that's related. The build without the flags mentioned earlier is ready (only...

I'm stress testing this latest release now and as.exe works find. Your error may indicate there is something in `PATH` that makes it load dependencies from the wrong place. That...

You are right, there is an issue with the 64-bit toolchain in release https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/13.1.0-11.0.0-msvcrt-r2/ Quite possibly my antivirus ate some files, but I need to investigate.

Since the slowness is with g++ in particular I will try to build with `--disable-libstdcxx-backtrace` instead of `--enable-libstdcxx-backtrace`. [libbacktrace](https://github.com/ianlancetaylor/libbacktrace) hasn't released an actual release version, so using it may have...

Ok, please try this release: https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/tag/13.1.0-11.0.0-msvcrt-r3

Can you try one of the following builds which I made with those optimization flags? - https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/tag/13.1.0-11.0.0-ucrt-r4b - https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/tag/13.1.0-11.0.0-msvcrt-r4b

What exactly is the benefit of the `-Wl,--no-insert-timestamp` flag? Are your measured speeds better/same/worse than MSYS2's gcc?

Okay, the latest builds (my computer has been busy tonight) include linker flag `-Wl,--no-insert-timestamp` both when building GCC and binutils: - https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/tag/13.1.0-16.0.5-11.0.0-msvcrt-r5 - https://github.com/brechtsanders/winlibs_mingw/releases/tag/13.1.0-16.0.5-11.0.0-ucrt-r5 Does it do what you expect...
