#18384: glib2, glib2-devel: don't -funroll-loops -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.7.0 Keywords: | Port: glib2, glib2-devel -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Joshua asked me by email:

Is there a good reason for glib2 having this?[[br]] [[br]] `configure.cflags-append \`[[br]] ` -funroll-loops \`[[br]] [[br]] Unrolling loops will often make things slower these days, as branch prediction is good and cache misses are expensive.

I responded:

No idea. Looks like it's been there since the port was added by mij in r1322.
