I've got about the same numbers for generic + x86_rep_movl_optimal.
Although with -m32 generic + x86_rep_movl_optimal is a bit worse than
-mtune=core2 (1836 vs 1841 for SPECINT and 1477 vs 1484 for SPECFP). It
is in the range of measurement error. But again code size is smaller
(0.73% and 0.66% correspondingly for SPECInt and SPECFp).
