  Bullshit.
  What makes you think it's slow? I haven't noticed it being any slower than
other compilers.
  A properly configured Emacs and a proper knowledge of makefiles is the best
IDE one may wish.
  It does not lack a good debugger: gdb.
  It does not lack a good profiler: gprof.
  The code generated by it is quite good. For example for Sparc the speed
of the code it generates is closely comparable to Sun's own optimized
compiler. Gcc optimizes the size of the binary a lot better than Sun's
compiler.
