Optimizing KDE 3.1.x

Posted by timothy on from the wringin-out-seconds dept.

David Lechnyr writes "This article goes into detail on optimizing KDE for speed. Typically, most distributions include pre-compiled binaries of KDE which are optimized for an Intel i386 computer. Chances are that you're running something faster than this; if so, this should help you tweak the compile process to speed things up a bit."

  1. portage ? by Bobas · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Hey, all you need here is a decent port system such as FreeBSD's or Gentoo's portage. Not much to see here, i guess.

    On the other hand compiling unpatched source with experimental optimization flags for your system is just asking for trouble.
