Hm, that was a sem-automatic action I saw no issues with (besides, I
considered this to be too small for a separate patch). `slabinfo' can
be used to collected extended '-X' measurements for gnuplot script
e.g.
`while [ 1 ]; do slabinfo -X >> stats; sleep 0.1s; done`
so making it a bit lighter is sort of positive change, though I'm not
married to this option.

I believe the remaining tools will not `suffer' as well.
Do you prefer to remove -O2?
