I'd like to move to a world where we basically have just two optimization levels, "size" and "speed", and libraries do not in general have the level specified, so it falls back on a default, which could then be set by configure. For individual libraries we might need to override the default value, if we know that certain compilers make a mess of certain optimization levels, or if some libraries are especially performance sensitive. (Making hotspot `-Os` would certainly never make any sense, for example.) ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/23563#issuecomment-2789552092
