i did few more test on common unix tools, or my programs and results are 
that by average there are just as fast within 1% range.

by average it is just like gcc both im compiling speed and execution 
speed.

from that mailing list - mostly from mark fedler. He even showed me some 
nice graphs to "prove" it - graphs showed speed of -O0 compilation.

actually good licence is for me the only adventage over gcc.

But yes - it is great adventage.
