Hi all,
I was wondering if there are any sane ways to optimize the performance
of a Gentoo system.
Overoptimization (the well known -O9 -fomgomg CFLAGS etc.) tends to

I have a different solution that should, no doubt, satisfy both sides:
We fork Gentoo. Create a new distro, called GenOne.
That has been done, it has become sentient and applied for developer
