I will test it. It takes a whole heck of a long time to compile pike with icc though - mainly because of the multi0file IPO linking stage for the main Pike binary (it's done quite a few times and take quite a long time :-). Example of output from that process, in case anyone is interested, are:
/home/neotron/Pike/7.5/src/main.c(188) : (col. 1) remark: main has been targeted for automatic cpu dispatch. /home/neotron/Pike/7.5/src/operators.c(440) : (col. 14) remark: LOOP WAS VECTORIZED. /home/neotron/Pike/7.5/src/operators.c(228) : (col. 1) remark: f_add has been targeted for automatic cpu dispatch. /home/neotron/Pike/7.5/src/multiset.c(1039) : (col. 1) remark: multiset_set_cmp_less has been targeted for automatic cpu dispatch.

Test it? What do they mean with "loop and memory access transformation"?
