I used gcc 3.2 that comes with SuSE 8.1.
Today i changed the initial values to a=0.5; b=0.0000001; x=0.1; and now
-O3 works!?? Here are the results:
C: -O3 -march=pentium
user 0m11.380s
C++: -O3 -march=pentium
user 0m11.960s
BTW to my surprise today i was able to use ardour without freezing my
machine
as it always did last week. I didnt changed the system and used the same
binaries.
I never saw such a random problem on a linux box before.
