I see you use:
* for compilation: -flto=auto ... -O2 (actually also -O1 but last one
overrides)
* for linking: -Wl,-O1 -flto=auto

I'm not 100% sure, but since you use LTO (Link Time Optimization),
the compilation happens at link time, so I suppose that -O1 is used
instead of -O2. Try to make sure that -Wl,-O2 is also used at link
time if you use LTO, it may help to speed up Vim significantly.
