These options control various sorts of optimizations.
The compiler performs optimization based on the knowledge it has of the program. Com- piling multiple files at once to a single output file mode allows the compiler to use informa- tion gained from all of the files when compiling each of them.
Not all optimizations are controlled directly by a flag. Only optimizations that have a flag are listed in this section.
Most optimizations are only enabled if an
-Olevel is set on the command line.You can invoke GCC with
gcc -Q --help=optimizersto find out the exact set of optimizations that are enabled at each level.-O3Optimize yet more. ‘-O3’ turns on all optimizations specified by ‘-O2’ and also turns on the ‘-finline-functions’, ‘-funswitch-loops’, ‘-fpredictive-commoning’, ‘-fgcse-after-reload’, ‘-ftree-vectorize’, ‘-fvect-cost-model’, ‘-ftree-partial-pre’ and ‘-fipa-cp-clone’ options
-O0Reduce compilation time and make debugging produce the expected results. This is the default.
