I do not think there will be noticable speed-up.
Actually, not using -fPIC gives a ~2-3% speed boost in a number of d3d benchmarks.
I don't know how much the effect of marking a few functions hidden changes that though. In the d3d code most things are already either static or hidden, and still not using -fPIC on wined3d alone improves things.
I suspect the fixes I am doing are really neglible speed wise.
They are usually not in any fast-paths, it is basically just clean-up.
Perhaps a small bit better load speed of the DSO, also %ebx handling changes might assist broken Windows programs, but otherwise there likely will be no measurable effect.
