Description Simon Strandman 2005-03-24 13:05:37 UTC

Optimizations for mozilla is currently striped down to -O1 on amd64 but I don't think this is nessesary any more. I compiled my mozilla and firefox with -O2 and -Os and they are perfectly stable. I've used this mozilla for some weeks now and it never crashes. Bug 33767 was opened 2003-11-18 several gcc version ago, and we have 3.4.3 now. Perhaps this could be reconsidered? If you don't agree just close the bug.

Ping!

Can anyone have a look at this? I've been compiling firefox and mozilla with -O2
for quite some time now and never had any problems. And binary distros also
compiles with -O2 or -Os on x86_64.

Comment 2 Jory A. Pratt 2005-11-07 11:41:33 UTC

I am addressing this for the 1.5 release!

Comment 3 Simon Strandman 2006-01-01 06:41:03 UTC

I'm closing this bug since it's fixed for firefox 1.5.
