For Intel, I usually use a set of flags similar to this:
/nologo /G6 /ML /W5 /Ob2 /FD /G7 /GA /GF /Gs /O3 /QaxiMKW /Qip /Qwp_ipo /Zm500
/Qprof_genx /c

Followed by:
/nologo /G6 /ML /W5 /Ob2 /FD /G7 /GA /GF /Gs /O3 /QaxiMKW /Qip /Qwp_ipo /Zm500
/Qprof_use /c

after profiling.

Exactly what version of Mingw's GCC are you using?  The performance I get
usually stinks in comparison to what you are getting.
