[LLVMdev] Enabling the SLP vectorizer by default for -O3

[Renato Golin]

Hi Nadav,

I think it's a great idea to have the slp vectorizer enabled, but maybe we
should trim the horrible cases first (regressions, +5% compile time, etc).
I don't mind sub-5% compile-time increase in O3, nor I mind sub-1%
regressions in performance on some benchmarks IFF the majority of the
benchmarks improve.

I've seen this before on ARM, and I agree, it looks like the load is
constrained by some other condition or pipeline stall before that.
