our buildbots are setup to configure --with-pydebug which also unfortunately causes them to compile with -O0... this results in a python binary that is excruciatingly slow and makes the entire test suite run take a long time.
given that nobody is ever going to run a gdb or another debugger on the buildbot generated transient binaries themselves how about we speed all of the buildbot's up by adding CFLAGS=-O2 to the configure command line? Sure, the compile step will take a bit longer but that is dwarfed by the test time as it is: http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/AMD64%20Ubuntu%20LTS%203.x/builds/3224 http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/ARMv7%203.x/builds/7 http://buildbot.python.org/all/builders/AMD64%20Snow%20Leop%203.x/builds/639 It should dramatically decrease the turnaround latency for buildbot results. -gps
