Bob,
I don't think this was ever the point. The question was: "For this
specific machine what would be the best flags?"
I have a specific revision of the AMD64 process. What flags should
I use? Possibly some sort of test could compile lots of things, look
at numbers, and allow me to make a quantitive decision instead of just
shooting in the dark.
