In our out of tree backend, CSE is used and preserved for 6 passes in total. I suspect if slot indexes are also preserved, the overhead might not be too much. Hence I was curious if you actually collected some numbers. If only legalizer is being looked at for compile time impact, we're not really evaluating the compile time savings to be had in other passes (assuming amortized cost of slot index) right?
