Re: Optimization Advice for beginer?

[Barry Andrews <titanandrews at earthlink dot net>]

Well... I find it interesting that you are relying on the compiler to 
optimize. Usually the first place to look at is your code. 

But anyway... looking at your compiler options, I think you have pretty much 
done everything you can. Maybe optimizing for a particular processor is an 
option for you?
