I had to uninstall objective C, though.
It complained about a dependency.

Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Version 9.1.0 seems to create slow executables. Version 8.3.0 was better (almost as 4.9.2)

I didn't know msys2 existed - I've been stuck on mingw-w64 with an outdated gcc version until now.

GCC 9.1.0 generates an executable of pretty much the same speed for me.

Re: gcc and g++ 9 are available for msys2
Me too. I use PGO, so I suspect that is why. Maybe it's not as good right out of the box.
The main thing that gets me excited about a new release is new language features and bug corrections.
