"Stampede Linux binaries are compiled with PGCC, a variation of EGCS with optimizations for Pentium class chips. it is 100% compatable with i486/i386, as well as all the pentium variants and their clones. So, the answer is yes. On a side note, with PGCC you should see a performance gain of 5%-30% with any pentium class chip." What I dont understand is if it's the OS who is compiled with PGCC or only the application. I would like to know if it can be used on FreeBSD and if anyone ever tryed. On the PGCC page, they say it work on FreeBSD. http://www.stampede.org/faq.html#chips http://www.goof.com/pcg/pgcc-faq.html#SEC0103 -- [Malartre][malartre@aei.ca][http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
