GCC 4.7 Compiler Performance On AMD FX-8150 Bulldozer

The TTSIOD Renderer performance pulled back a bit from GCC 4.6.3, but GCC 4.7.0 is still well ahead of where it was in the GCC 4.4 days.

The VP8 video encoding performance is relatively flat-lined on the AMD Bulldozer system across the releases tested.

The eight-core AMD system's performance for x264 has been improving little by little with succeeding GNU Compiler Collection releases.
