SSE in 32 bit is not "just used" by gcc
What about -ftree-vectorize?
that is, on 32 bit, not so cheap since it means transfering FP from the
x87 fpu to sse and back a lot.
ok but why isn't it enabled on x86_64 (for 64bit apps)
the packages are compiled with
-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions
-fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic
(this is shown in about:buildconfig in 64bit mozilla)
And -mfpmath=sse?
doesn't that also change the ABI?
All this SSE stuff is really useful for 64 bit x86... but for 32 bit...
a LOT less so due to the ABI/calling convention restrictions that 32 bit
suffers from.
