Just for kicks last night I installed gcc3.01 which claims to have
Athlon optimization, ie. -march=athlon. I recompiled Python and Numpy,
and then ran a big simulation. The new compiler ran 200 seconds slower
than the old gcc2.95 with plain -march=pentium. I need to go to the gcc
website and see just what optimization they are claiming. Maybe I
should have also used -02. Rob.
