1/ Operand folding during complex pattern matching for LEAs has been extended, such that it promotes Scale to
accommodate similar operand appearing in the DAG e.g. T1 = A + B T2 = T1 + 10 T3 = T2 + A For above DAG rooted at T3, X86AddressMode will now look like Base = B , Index = A , Scale = 2 , Disp = 10
2/ During OptimizeLEAPass down the pipeline factorization is now performed over LEAs so that if there is an opportunity
then complex LEAs (having 3 operands) could be factored out e.g. leal 1(%rax,%rcx,1), %rdx leal 1(%rax,%rcx,2), %rcx will be factored as following leal 1(%rax,%rcx,1), %rdx leal (%rdx,%rcx) , %edx
3/ Aggressive operand folding for AM based selection for LEAs is sensitive to loops, thus avoiding creation of any complex LEAs within a loop.
4/ Simplify LEA converts (lea (BASE,1,INDEX,0) --> add (BASE, INDEX) which offers better through put.
PR32755 will be taken care of by this pathc.

Genuine question.
MRI is usually accessibly via other more efficient means.
Do we really need to rely on this one?
