Hello,

Did anyone try to rebuild everything, including the kernel, with gcc
version 2.7.2 or pgcc, and with -O2 or higher?

Using a newer compiler with more aggressive optimizing can speed up
the entire system quite a bit I hope; it is a shame not to use that
possibility. But I wonder whether possible bugs in the compiler will
cause problems.
