Hi all,

I successfully compiled the current CVS snapshot of Ethereal with -O3. It
runs faster than with -O2 (about 15-30% faster).

I don't think the crash Thomas reported was due to -O3 compilation.

Should anyone else like to compile Ethereal with -O3, then you have to edit
all configure files (there are 3 of them), and replace O2 with O3. I didn't
find any autotools info on this (but I didn't search either :).

Regards,

Olivier
