Well I wasn't timing linking, I was timing the app itself. Optlink
does actually seem a tiny little bit faster than unilink (we're
talking a few milliseconds here), however unilink does a much better
job and the resulting exe is smaller and seems to have better
performance. Also unilink won't bail out when you have too many
symbols (probably because it strips the unused symbols away).

It's a shame they're both closed-source though.
