+As you can see, lld is significantly faster than GNU linkers.
 Note that this is just a benchmark result of our environment.
 Depending on number of available cores, available amount of memory or
 disk latency/throughput, your results may vary.

-       removed that from the command line for GNU ld. GNU ld would be
-       slower than this if it had that option support. For gold and
