What should be the default compiler options for the shootout benchmarks?
The used compiler is fpc 2.2.0. The benchmarks are run on a Intel Q6600
quad-core, either with 32 bits or 64 bits Ubuntu.
There is some controversion about it, see
https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=311109&group_id=30402&atid=411002
There are two proposals:
-O3oregvar -XX -Xs
and
-XXs -Oppentiumm -Cppentiumm -O3
Does -O3 enable regvar optimization on i386 and x86_64?
If not, why not? Does it produce wrong code in certain circumstances?
