This might be the case or not. Depending on your CPU. When you
compile for your machine, the compiler can set all optimization
options according to your system. A package maintiner however
has to compile it in a way that it runs on all possible CPUs
the package is meant for. This means it can not take best advantage
of non standart CPU features you might have paid you CPU mmanufacturer
for. A special built for your system can.

But I have no clue, in which situations this leads to significant
differences in practice, or only academical.
