You can't use this mailserver as a relay for this address. >Subject: Re: pgcc-1.1a - first impression >What about using MSVC and programming stuff somewhat better? >Then you only need to wait for a few months. MSVC? No, thanks. Do you have MSVC for something other than Windows or DOS? Could you imagine Windows machine running flawlessly for few months? Running a cluster of Windows machines flawlessly? Let us stop the discussion at this point. I don't have MSVC and won't buy or even steal one. And the program is mixed FORTRAN and C code (trivial, if you have f2c). It went already through many improvement iterations. This is not the right place for discussion about it. There are problems in computational quantum chemistry/physics, which cannot be done in an hour. >The reason that those bizarre optimizations like -fno-runtime-lift-stores >are faster is only because the program is not written very well. Not _faster_, but _reliable_. This option gives _bad_ code. Krzysztof
