Re: [Dev-C++] how to improve mingw performance

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

I don't know about any genuine Intel Pentium without math processor. The
i486 was available in DX and SX models with the SX missing the fpu.

Besdies - compilation isn't very fpu-intensive, so having to emulate the
fp instructions shouldn't be a problem.
