It just dawned on me that all intel packages must be compiled for 386 to
make them intel platform-independant. I am wondering how much of a
performance boost can be had by recompiling them for 486 or pentium.
10% improvement would probably be about the maximum. While 10% is the
point where

Have you ever seen numbers for running Pentium code on a 486 and 386 vs
native code?
I think the Pentium code generator now uses Pentium-specific instructions.
Before then, Pentium code on 386 and 486 sometimes ran faster than the 386
and 486
