Hi,
I'm installing numpy on a 2 cpus intel pentium 4 Linux box. I'm installing BLAS
and
LAPACK from sources too and I need to tune compiler flags. Here is the
question: which
are the proper flags for compiling LAPACK? Inside lapack.tgz make.inc.LINUX
says:
OPTS = -funroll-all-loops -fno-f2c -O3
instead on scipy.org[0] it's suggested:
OPTS = -O2
I assume that using -O3 and unrolling loops should have definitely better
performance
that just -O2 but I'm wondering if the speedy options can be a problem for
current
numpy release (numpy-1.0rc1). Is it safe to use '-funroll-all-loops -fno-f2c
-O3'?
Thanks in advance for answers,
Emanuele
