Two poll type questions about the PCH compiler

Ok,

1. Has anyone ever got a program of any reasonable length to still run properly when using an optimization level over 9? It seems to always horribly break the program for me. Level 9 works fine.

2. Has anyone managed to top my current record of having the tree file generation take up 186,555K of disk space? It seems like tree generation might be a big buggy for me... I leave it off as I don't use it but I'm curious if it's supposed to be able to get that large. It seems to be filled up with the same 6 functions over and over.

I never change the #opt level. I turn off the Tree generation.
My concept is "don't push the compiler". I don't want any problems.

@collink : I am interested in seeing the project that make the compiler behave so.

Could I have a look at it please?
