Oof. It's like our binaries are suddenly very bloated. Did this start very recently (like in the past few days?) Perhaps -mcpu=pentiumpro bloats things and we should use NO_CPU_FLAGS when building crunches, etc. We might also want to use -Os instead of -O when building the kernels and crunches as well. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
