To make the ball roll again, I attached a testcase that can be tuned
to understand the impact on compile time for different sizes of a
basic block.  One can also set the number of iterations in the loop to
1 to test the vectorizer with no loops around.

Hal, could you please report the compile times with/without the
vectorizer for different basic block sizes?

Once this parameter is tuned, could we get this code committed to llvm?

Thanks,
Sebastian

PS: this testcase is also a compile time hog for GCC at -O3 when the
loop vectorizer is running.
