You can't get beat... |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=native -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-unwind-tables -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables" |

That's what I use, except for cross-compiling. For an explanation of |
| 21 |
the "unwind" flags, see thread... |
| 22 |
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.busybox/36695 from the busybox |
| 23 |
mailing list. And don't forget CPU_FLAGS_X86. Emerge and run |
| 24 |
app-portage/cpuinfo2cpuflags as soon as you can during the install |
| 25 |
process. I believe that's right after running "eselect profile". And |
| 26 |
then run "emerge system && emerge world". It's a lot quicker when you |
| 27 |
don't have very much installed on the machine. |
