Thanks for providing this link. As I can see there FLAC uses integer and
Vorbis uses float. So rebuilding the libvorbis and flac packages should be
the easiest method to get some test tools for different compiler
optimizations.
Does anybody want to do it? ;-)

I think this makes the most sense.  You'd probably also want to rebuild
glibc, but I don't think rebuilding the entire distribution would be
worthwhile -- because I'm not convinced about the speed improvement *and*
how long it'd take to build the packages: it's not a fast process.

Agree. So far as concerns me, I'm interested now in a very minimal distro (no X and superfluous packages). Anyway ASAP I'll try to use armedslack with beagle without recompiling anything (just a well-patched kernel).

Thank you,
