P.S. - I'm still curious about trying your compiler flags but now there is no pressing timeframe to do it in on this machine. - MWK --
I put my workstation through its paces last weekend using Duncan's flags and so far I've only run across one package that gave me problems and that was Evolution. It didn't like the LDFLAGS="-Wl,-z,now" I can't really say if I've noticed a huge difference in performance because I use Windowmaker which is already pretty snappy but some of my apps such as Firefox seem to be a few steps quicker but that might all be in my head. Altogether it took about 18 hours to recompile the whole mess and nothing fell apart other than a slight issue with Evolution. -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
