A non-distribution-specific way to do it is to set a CFLAGS environment variable, something like: export CFLAGS='-O3 -march=i686' You might also want to "export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS" for C++ stuff to compile with the same optimizations. And, of course, you might want to set those in your ~/.bash_profile or something. Of course, replace my example with the actual gcc options you would want to use. -- Thomas J.
