+1. From the FIXMEs it appears as if the omission of LoopVectorize. & co was not intentional, but because of initial bugs/limitations, so enabling them even if it impacts compile-time seems appropriate to me. This will help making the transition as smooth as possible and will avoid us having to track down/fix obvious regressions caused by big differences in the pipeline.
I think if we want to drastically adjust the pipeline, that should be done well after we ironed out the issues caused alone by the NewPM switch.
================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Passes/PassBuilder.cpp:1740
// Nuke dead stores.
MainFPM.addPass(DSEPass());
+ // FIXME: once we provide support for enabling MLSM, add it here.

Oh right, we don't have to add them all in one go.
