From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Stephen Hocking-Senior Programmer PGS Tensor Perth To: egcs@cygnus.com Subject: Optimal compile flags for ultra2 & power2 Date: Mon, 21 Sep 1998 20:09:00 -0000 Message-id: <199809220309.LAA12793@ariadne.tensor.pgs.com> X-SW-Source: 1998-09/msg01217.html I was wondering what flags people use for best FP performance on these - a) Sun ultra2 b) IBM Power2. There's an additional quirk - a lot of the data I have to work with is 32bit FP, so avoiding costly conversions between double & single precision (which is a characteristic of the Power2 chipset) is important.
