There are two differences: The rule set is automatically generated, therefore it is really large (about 13000 rules/patterns). And, it is generated from one set of sources, so the rule set will be optimal for this set of sources. Both differences mean that the rule set by itself is not really generic. But the general approach is. You can always run a program over your .s files that detects common patterns, generate a set of replacement rules, and then replace common code sequences by a set of subroutines. However, the approach is beyond what would normally be done by a compiler, because to generate an optimal set of patterns, you will have to look at all assembly files for a complete project, not just at one module (as the compiler does).
