With LyX-1.3, I did some systematic tests. O3 was not noticeably
faster
than O2 or Os, and we thought at the time that we might as well
keep the
size down. So we decided on Os. I haven't tested LyX-1.6, but old
habits
are hard to break....
no problem, i can commit it this way. ... it may be unrelated but i
remember
some complaints about speed issues which were mac specific.
OK -- I just tried it again, just to be sure. Compiling with -O3
gives me pretty much the same results as -Os. (The speed problems on
Mac are -- and for the most part have been -- with typing speed.
Putting LyX in fullscreen mode, I get the same typing lag in each
case. That is, I type a sentence, and I finish typing the sentence
when the same character appears on the screen, and then I have to
wait about the same number of seconds before the full sentence appears.)
Thanks for committing.
