[FX] MozJF: 2004-05-29 [branch/Linux] (gtk2+xft Pentium4)

MozJF · Post by **MozJF** » May 29th, 2004, 2:22 am

Hello.

For linux and Pentium 4 CPUs (and celeron 1.7 Ghz and faster ?)

This build needs a linux distro based on a glibc 2.3.2 (or younger). As far as I know, Mandrake 9.2/10.0, Fedora Core 1 (and 2 ?), Slackware 9.1 / current are compatible. LIbranet 2.8.1 was reported as compatible too. Many others could be too.

This build is using AVIARY_1_0_20040515_BRANCH.

Sources used were up-to-date at midnight, mozilla.org time.

Optimization used in .mozconfig :

Code: Select all

ac_add_options --enable-optimize='-Os -freorder-blocks -gstabs+ -march=pentium4 -msse2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fforce-addr'

It is a 8.5 Mb .tar.bz2 file. You can find it here :

Comments welcome.

Thanks.

Fedora Core 2 ships with glibc 2.3.3.

So, Fedora Core 2 will be compatible ;p

Works on SuSE 9.1 too...
Great work MozJF!

Can you enlighten me about your optimizations?
As far as I know -gstabs+ is for debugging, while -fomit-frame-pointer makes debugging impossible...
And why -Os? Isn't optimization for speed more important?

Thanks for the info about -gstabs+ ; I will remove it from my optimization linue.

The more important, in my point of view : the smallest size possible ;p

Okay, your choice. I'll go for speed.
