https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229326 --- Comment #1 from Kenneth Salerno <kennethsalerno@yahoo.com> --- I know this will incite heckling and a tomato thrown at me but I also noted that even the Windows build of firefox uses VC's -O1 (optimize code for minimum size), similar to Android's -Oz optimization in about:buildconfig. I wouldn't advocate for -Oz over -O2, but I am suggesting -O3 is not the most desirable optimization level, particularly for such an already large application like firefox, where a marginal gain in corner cases cannot overcome larger binary size that ultimately slows down overall loading and execution. But again, if anyone has browser benchmarks I would be very interested to study them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
