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. regards, F. ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
