  To be fair even the less optimized areas of meshoptimizer are very low level code. Probably not much optimization to be done. I've seen this in other domains too, I have some graphics/art code that is very low level C#, and .NET 4.6 to the latest .NET Core, which has huge performance gains in normal enterprise code, does nothing for it. Which makes sense its all carefully thought out loops on arrays, not much to be done. But that does bring up the point, would we be better served by just, writing lower level code when needed and turning off all these optimizations for faster compile times?

    Better compiler means less spots need hand-optimizing. Machine time is cheap compared to human labor. I suspect the break-even comes very quickly in favor of slower but better compilers.
