Do you mean comparison between current Python with PGO and patched
Python without PGO?

The hot attribute is ignored by GCC when PGO compilation is used.

Well, it's a practical issue for me to run benchmarks for speed.python.org.

Moreover, I like the idea of getting a fast(er) Python even when no
advanced optimization techniques like LTO or PGO is used. At least,
it's common to build quickly Python using "./configure && make" for a
quick benchmark.
