When you compile an application that does floating point math with clang in current right now, specifying -march=3Dnative or -march=3Dsandybridge or bt= ver2 or any number of CPUs I tried to target produces predominantly x87 instruction= s.=20 Typically GCC and most other compilers I've seen default to targeting SSE instructions, instead. If you specify -march=3Dx86-64, you get the results you'd expect (predomina= ntly SSE2 instructions for floating point). This leads me to believe this is a = bug, for most everything SSE units should be the most optimal. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
