First of all, I must say that I'm enjoying this discussion a
lot and that although I never used this pentium-builder thing,
I think that it's pretty slick.
I guess that recompiling every package is not worth the
trouble, but recompiling multimedia and CPU intensive ones may
be a major gain (say, MPEG players and such).
BTW, you can use -O6 for your programs. If I remember
correctly, it will fallback to whatever is the highest mode of
optimization (somebody please correct me if I'm wrong -- I
read this a long time ago and didn't find it listed in the
current documentation now; the funny thing is that it's not
mentioned in the current potato manpage).
I also don't know if -O6 does the same thing as -O9.
