A coworker had the follwoing question. I was wondering if anyone out there knew what need to be done.
"We have a simulator that is being targetted for a Sun Fire V440 server with two 1.065 MHz processors and 4 GB memory. When we build the application then compare its execution times on the server with the exec time on a 550MHz 1GB workstation, the app runs faster on the workstation (by about 40%!). My questions: Are there specific compiler options that we need to identify to optimize for the multiprocessor environment? We are currently running Solaris 9.0 and using the gcc compiler v 3.2.2. Are there more suitable tools available (e.g. the Sun Compiler suite)?" Any thoughts?
