hi, gcc & g++ are the programs I use most, and often I'm waiting for them to compile a big project I'm currently working on.
is it worth to recompile them using more "agressive" optimizations options (-O3, -funroll-loops, and -march=pentiumpro) ? anyway, I tried it, using apt-get to get the sources. Gcc, g++, gnu objective C and java compilers share the same source. I changed the compilation options in the "debian/rule" file (acutally "debian/rule2") and let it run. But during compilation it stopped while compiling objective c, complaining that some file was missing ("gc.h") ... Does anybody has any experience with this ? Should I write the mantainer of the package ? I'd be gratefull for any help or pointers on this. cheers, jan
