Why not add a glibc and kernel which are optimized for pentium 4 in FC3 ? This would increase the perfomance on newer PC but also works on older ones by still including the i686 and i586 versions.
Starting with FC3, .i386.rpm and .i686.rpm packages will be compiled with -march{3,6}86 -mtune=pentium4, so although they will run on i386 (resp. i686), they will be optimized for P4 (Athlons and newer AMD chips run P4 optimized code without noticeable performance hit).
Hi !
Is there difference betwwen -mtune=pentium4 and -mtune=athlon ? Pentium4 sounds intel-ish centric but what about AMD ?.
