Hello All,
I came across this article on linux for Core2 Duo.
http://www.linuxhardware.org/article.pl?sid=06/08/22/0415251
What does the author mean by the statement thats quoted below?
"Since we have a new core in this review, I decided it was prudent to pull out both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Linux. We wanted to find out where Core 2 shows the most performance and how it did versus AMD in each mode. The table below shows the compile options for each OS and processor type. I didn't go all out and be over-aggressive here. It was important to compile the applications for each specific processor type but not be too aggressive and cause instability."
What compilation has he done? Is he actually compiling the kernel or packages or does he give the specific commands at boot prompt? Could someone briefly explain the process?
Regards,
Rony.
