Subject: Why -fomit-frame-pointer ?
Date: Mon, 21 Sep 1992 20:30:32 GMT

I have been compiling several programs with and without -fomit-frame-pointer,
including the Linux kernel, but so far I haven't found a good reason to use
this flag. I haven't noticed any speed differences, but the binaries
and the kernel get larger when I use -fomit-frame-pointer.

What is the exact effect of the flag -m486 ? Binaries become larger using
this option, but they don't get faster. What are the advantages of -m486 ?

Wondering ...
-Martin
