Many laptops have relatively poor memory and HD speed, irrespective of
their capacity. -Os helps with slow IO.
I'm just curious. The last time I participated in a -O2 vs. -Os
discussion was 1 -1/2 to 2 years ago. There were certain software
components (don't remember which) where -Os was contraindicated -
warnings against compiling them with -Os. Have things progressed to
the point where -Os can be generally recommended?
