I have noticed, the official portage tree has included gcc 4.2. Now for Core 2 Duo CPU (amd64 Gentoo arch) I use in make.conf file:
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=nocona -pipe" gcc' changelog has this note: -------------------- ... IA-32/x86-64 * -mtune=generic can now be used to generate code running well on common x86 chips. This includes AMD Athlon, AMD Opteron, Intel Pentium-M, Intel Pentium 4 and Intel Core 2. * -mtune=native and -march=native will produce code optimized for the host architecture as detected using the cpuid instruction. ... -------------------- The question is: must I replace '-march=nocona' with '-mtune=native and -march=native'? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
