best optimization under IRIX ?

[Tim Prince]

You must add -funroll-loops or -funroll-all-loops; I usually got about 70%
of MipsPro 7.3 Fortran speed from g77, and gcc should be closer than that to
the speed of MipsPro C.  -O3 does interprocedural analysis only in a forward
direction within one file, while -Ofast does it it link time.  Also, you
must perform many of the usual optimizations in source code as gcc is much
more faithful to your code.
