Optimization level 9 (-O9)? Thats a laugh. Read the GCC man page, the optimization levels are just groupings of other optimization flags (-O1, -O2, -O3, -O0, -Os), with optimization level 3 (-O3) containing the most optimization flags. The numbers don't correlate to any kind of optimization

[gentoo-user] CFLAGS for PowerPC 604?

2005-05-26 Thread Colin
The PowerPC make.conf.example suggests these CFLAGS: "-O2 -mcpu=604 -mtune=604 -mstring -mmultiple -mpowerpc-gfxopt -pipe" Meanwhile, various other sites recommend only these: "-O3 -march=604 -fsigned_char -pipe" Which CFLAGS are best for the 604 processor? I'm guessing that I should just comb
