Hello, As far as I can see, it would be a major speed jump for G4 and newer computers, if we could use these optimalisations from http://freevec.org/ . Glibc and some db libs are compiled seperately for i686 on the PC as well. Alpha1 comes tomorrow, so it's probably too late for that one, but would be a nice addition for Alpha2. Should I file an enhancment request in bugzilla? Bye, Peter

They can use the uname -m to use different library paths. We dont have such a thing, yet.
