I'm already using the cpu switches: "-m64 -mptr64 -Wa,-xarch=v9 -mcpu=v9", I'll try the optimization next. >> Is there a way to "optimize" those files by converting them to another >> format?

It is not a trivial task to optimize those. OK, thanks for taking the time to figure out this. -- René Berber _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
