They should know what? Your benchmarks indicate that -O3 is a hair faster than -Os. As you said above, the -Os binaries are a hair smaller. What do people value, things being a hair faster or a hair smaller? I do know that 10% size reductions don't sell anything, whereas little improvements in performance can edge out competitors in Shootout benchmarks.
The chicken libraries and binaries are a good deal smaller with -Os (the size improvements of micro-benchmarks are not so important here). Anyway, this will my last post about this issue. cheers, felix -- http://galinha.ucpel.tche.br:8081/blog/blog.ssp
