GCC 4.4.1-tdm-2 for MinGW (with installer)
TDragon:
The second TDM-GCC release of GCC 4.4.1 is now available!
NOTICE:
The first TDM-GCC release of GCC 4.4.1 had a bug that caused a major slowdown in nearly any non-trivial program that it compiled. Be sure to upgrade to the new TDM-2 release if you're currently using 4.4.1-tdm-1.
See the original post for changes in the vanilla 4.4 series sources as well as TDM-GCC specific bug fixes.
I tested this release by successfully building wxWidgets (2.8.10), and building and running Code::Blocks (SVN r5848), both without errors!
Binary packages are available for the Ada, C, C++, Fortran, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ languages, as drop-in replacements for the MinGW project's official gcc packages. Additionally, the TDM/MinGW installer will automatically install TDM-GCC and the MinGW compiler suite for you. Full details and download links are at http://www.tdragon.net/recentgcc/ .
Disclaimer:
The TDM-GCC builds are unofficial replacements for the official MinGW releases of GCC binaries. TDM-GCC was previously recommended for experimentation purposes only, but constant use in day-to-day development and a total download count of over 60,000 have proven the TDM-GCC releases to be at least as usable as the most recent official MinGW GCC release. (Please note that this does not mean that there are no bugs; merely that there is a different set of bugs with a similar or lesser average criticality.) Therefore, TDM-GCC is now heartily endorsed for production use in any non-critical environment, with only the following caveats:
* TDM-GCC is not formally affiliated with or endorsed by the MinGW project (although several MinGW team members make use of it)
* No level of support for TDM-GCC is in any way guaranteed (although a best effort is made to fix bugs as they are found or forward them to GCC Bugzilla)
Cheers,
John E. / TDM

as always John : superb and many thanks !!!
Do you any idea, when your super package will contain GDB 7.0 ?
Not that we need it, since we already upgraded manually ;-)

Hi all
First let me record my sincere thanks & appreciation to John /TDragon, for bring out such an excellent & usefull product.
A suggestion: The last update date on the first post must come at the top of the first post.
New users like me are getting confused that, the cpu/slowdown bug is being reported even after tmd-1 to tdm-2 release, by some posters below. It took some time to findout they were referring to the earlier release.
Thanks & regards.
