Hi, I know when deploying an application, it is always best to be conservative with the compiler optimization options - thus your application can run on most CPU's out there (maximum compatibility).
But what is the best optimization options I can specify for my own system. This includes FPC itself, Lazarus IDE, MSEide, fpGUI DocView, fpGUI UI Designer etc... all the tools I use on a daily basis. I find it a waist compiling for 386 CPU compatibility, when there is not a single person in our office still running a 386 system. So for a start, I want to optimize the application that run on MY system. This is the CPU I have in my system: -------------------------------------------- $ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 23 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9400 @ 2.66GHz stepping : 10 cpu MHz : 2664.451 cache size : 3072 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 4 core id : 0 cpu cores : 4 apicid : 0 initial apicid : 0 fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 13 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe syscall nx lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good aperfmperf pni dtes64 monitor ds_cpl vmx smx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr pdcm sse4_1 xsave lahf_lm tpr_shadow vnmi flexpriority bogomips : 5328.90 clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 36 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: -------------------------------------------- Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
