That talk really revealed some brilliant optimizations that Clang does. In addition to what you mentioned, the bit where Clang recognises the summation loop, removes the loop and replaces it with a closed-form solution feels intuitively more like the operations that only some cutting edge research-language compiler should be able to do. To see this for C and C++ is very impressive.
