Give the little f- angels what they want... blinding speed with Gentoo! Using the optimisations to get a boost from the extra 2.3 bits in the 386DX's register THAT YOU NEVER KNEW WERE THERE, you can totally get like, a.003 percent increase, but only if you compile Reader Rabbit from source, and you use USE -everything. Then, in the two weeks while you've got that quality edutainment compiling, crack open that liquor cabinet and pop us all out some scotch, because by the time that next school year comes along, you'll be getting speed you've never thought possible! OK, it might not SEEM like it's there, but "... To me, an extra 0.1% performance increase, even if I am only imagining it to be faster, is certainly worth one day a week recompiling all of the latest packages from source code...". Oh, but don't forget, "its -O3 the letter, not -03 the number".
