His site seems to be down though. The url I gave is not the study I'm really thinking of. I think that he tried a genetic algorithm type approach to try and find the "perfect" set of optimization flags to use. I'm sure of someone wants to use up a lot of cycles then someone could use a lot of benchmarks with different combinations of flags to find the perfect match for some programs. You could use simulated annealing or genetic algorithms if you didn't want to exercise each and every combination. -- http://dmoz.org/profiles/pollei.html http://sourceforge.net/users/stephen_pollei/ http://www.orkut.com/Profile.aspx?uid=2455954990164098214 http://stephen_pollei.home.comcast.net/ GPG Key fingerprint = EF6F 1486 EC27 B5E7 E6E1 3C01 910F 6BB5 4A7D 9677
