    Hi,

    although I have a "medium" fast system (P4-1.5Ghz, 1GB Ram, Geforce 2
    Quadro) my system seems to be "slow". I.e., switching from one virtual
    KDE desktop to another it takes about half a second until all windows
    are redrawn with their correct contents.
    I have read that all binary fedora RPM packages are compiled with "-g
    -march=i386". Is that true? Will that change in future?
    I have also read that if you build your system using the RPMS packages
    and issuing flags like "-march=pentium4 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer" would
    make the system objectively and subjectively faster. Is that true?
    Any comments on this issue?
