i686 is great. If my understanding is correct, it's not saying that we'll drop i586 at that time. i586 for CDs only and i686 for DVD only would be smart, just dreaming, I know that we have dropped CDs.

Personally, I prefer -Os as long as there's no much stability issues about it. Honestly, I don't know if those size optimizition options can do any harm. But at least have a try on it in the lab please. People simply want faster systems. Btw, is -Os REAL fast or just THREOTICALLY fast?

Thruth

We have so far two compiler optimization topics:

* Building for i686 in the future (Bug 186074)

* Building with compiler flags -Os vs. -O2

Anything else we should discuss or any comments on these?

Thanks,
Andreas
