Member since:
Well thanks for the recommendation. Its a known fact that on an x86 architecture with few extra optimizations using -O2 is stable.
I would try it out......but its 2 time consuming to recompile kde packages all over again using different optimizations (unless i can obtain some binary packages compiled like that). Im sure that nothing different will happen. And im pretty sure that a good deal of the crashing problems that happened in kde 3.4 were resolved in kde 3.4.1 or kde 3.4.2.
Anyways does anyone in fact know if slackware compiles it packages with -O2 optimizations. Since its focused on stability and security, it might already use -O0 but its running -O2 max. Yes I will accept that -O3 is a lil questionable and anything more than that is nuts. But not really -O2. But i guess thats for another discussion.
