What optimizations did they do that had the biggest effect? can they be brought into the mainline linux kernel and distros?

Mostly it's just compiling everything correctly and getting the most juice out of transparent hugepages.

I could be wrong but I think they used icc (Intel's c compiler) for most/everything?

I don't think they build any part of it with icc, the world's worst compiler. They do not even offer icc as a package.
