[comp.sys.apple2] orca/c optimizations

acmfiu@serss0.fiu.edu (ACMFIU) (03/28/91)

there has been some discussion here about orca/c's optimize pragma not being
totally reliable. i hope those of you making these claims are 100% sure
you are giving the compiler PERFECT C code. this is the only code that
orca/c's optimizer is guaranteed to work on. there are "checks" that are
disabled when you have optimized code and therefore you had better make
sure your C code is perfect.

i would suggest generally setting certain bits in the optimize pragma rather
than using '-1'.
