Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] 2.4.3 Python Universal Binary Pystone Comparison

[Bob Ippolito]

Ok, I see what the problem is, because the Universal python is also half as fast on my PPC. It appears that the universal build is not using any compiler optimizations at all, where a normal build is -O3.  I'm not quite sure where/why this is happening (autoconf is evil), but I'm sure someone will figure it out soon enough. # universal OPT=        -DNDEBUG -g # normal OPT=        -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -bob On Apr 6, 2006, at 10:04 PM, Ted Leung wrote: I just realized that I only sent this to Shane, so for the whole list (and Alex) Hmm.  Here's three of those...
