Hi there! |

Due to a MAJOR hardware problem I just got a new PC. It has an AMD |
| 4 |
FX(tm)-4100 Quad-Core Processor which is a lot faster than my previous |
| 5 |
AMD 4850e dual core machine. I'd like to emerge -e @world with |
| 6 |
-march=native now, but I think about starting to use that graphite stuff. |
| 7 |
You know, enabling the graphite USE flag for gcc, and adding |
| 8 |
-floop-interchange -floop-strip-mine -floop-block to the CFLAGS in order |
| 9 |
to gain some speed by parallelizing stuff or something like that. |
| 10 |
|

What are your impressions on this? Is it fun? Will there be a noticeable |
| 12 |
speed difference? Do packages fail to build? We just had a 'Graphite |
| 13 |
causing trouble' thread here, the problem was that dev-libs/cloog-ppl |
| 14 |
has to be rebuilt when dev-libs/ppl has been updated. Can there be other |
| 15 |
problems, which would make me waste much more time than I could |
| 16 |
possibly gain by using these optimizations? |
