Well according to this it's currently around 40% as fast as gcc -O2...
Read the article, 1.2 was 40% as fast on one specific benchmark, and its lack of speed largely came down to having a much worse CRC implementation, not general shortcomings.
Now 1.3 is 63% the speed of gcc O2 on this largely hostile benchmark.
