If you have issues with this package visit gitlab and read the readme first.

I'm still getting an error with no "python" present during configure, despite the line "export PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2" in the PKGBUILD. I suppose not everything is honouring $PYTHON. Symlinking /usr/bin/python2 to /usr/bin/python seems to work (at least, it's now building).

I remember reading a few article a long time ago from a few Mozilla devs that they had gotten -O3 working with Firefox, so I figured why not. This one is about out of date: http://www.ogre.com/node/149, shows some improvements @ -O3. BTW, forgot to say, make sure your gcc, gcc-libs, binutils, etc are -not- the multilib versions, and are just the normal regular versions.

@bakgwailo: -O3 is to much, -O2 is enough

Also, on mtune vs. march, they are both OK to use AFAIK - march takes presidence. From man gcc: "Moreover, specifying -march=cpu-type implies -mtune=cpu-type." So I think you can either have it implicitly in the make flags or not, it shouldn't matter.

I have 8Gigs of ram, too, and your flags look OK - mine are: CFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native -O3 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" CXXFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native -O3 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro" However, it might be your -j8 -> try like -j2 (thats what I am using on my i5 M560). I had overall issues using higher -j values before and compiling firefox.

even if I remove -mtune in C(XX)FLAGS i get the same error

Thaodan, your CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS include both the march & mtune flags. The march flag is to compile specifically for your CPU. The mtune flag compiles for generic CPUs but optimised (tuned) to your CPU. This produces a larger binary. The mtune flag is not normally used or needed. My suggestion is, if you only compile for your machine, remove "-mtune=native" in both CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS. Recommended reading here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gcc-optimization.xml
