It has been a while, but I was quite surprised by how good gcc/g++ was at explaining why it had failed to vectorize a certain loop. At that time clang was being positioned as the better-than-gcc at optimization and error messages and it turned out that on my code it was the other way round -- hence the surprise.
I had written a expressions template C++ helper library with sort of the same functionality as Python's itertools before I was familiar with itertools.
This was for my own consumption. I expected very little from g++ and it had me impressed. Would be around 2008 - 2010.
