Hi all :D I think what "-march=your_arch -O2" it's enough, because -O3 it's highest but have some details (http://gentoo-wiki.com/CFLAGS#-O2_or_-O3.3F). My guess is "-march=your_arch -O2". I was compiled my entire system with those flags and my applications no matter which have a very good functionality...
I hope give you some help to make your decision... On 4/9/07, Alexander Skwar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

The resulting binaries of a -O2 -pipe compile will be the same as those of a -O2 (no pipe) compile.

Answer: Depends. On a system with not that much cache, it might not be. Alexander Skwar -- BOFH Excuse #16: somebody was calculating pi on the server -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
