Hi everybody,
Gentoo linux is an special distro that can be automatically optimized and it offers an extreme performance according to machine specifications.
There is no such magical thing, although some very specific programs like multimedia libraries may run faster with -O3 (and the newer -Ofast) other programs do in fact run slower or produce huge bloated binaries, other optimizations are unsafe and produce broken code.
The architecture option might be a great performance improvement in some cases, especially when SIMD is effective.
If it's a library, the architecture-optimized version can be placed additionally in the sub-directory of HWCAP, such as /usr/lib/sse3/. Then ld.so will pick up automatically per running hwcap.
Yeah that's one option, the other is using ifunc and/or gcc attribute target... That HWCAP thing may be interesting for some selected libraries, do you know where is the FM ? have found no manpage and no authoritative information out there.. :( -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
