Hi,

In compiling with Sun Studio 11 on Solaris 10 AMD, what kind of
compiler options are recommended?. I am recompiling my 32-bit
application on the Solaris 10 AMD platform where uname -a reads 'SunOS
<host-name> 5.10 Generic<Kernel Info> i86pc i386 i86pc'

I am specifically looking for the -xtarget and -xarch flags? Should
-xtarget and -xarch be set to some specific values for building a
32-bit app on AMD?

It would depend a lot on what your application's doing. Is it heavy on floating point, or integer, or ...

You will probably need to benchmark your application built with a variety of different options to be sure.

Cheers,

Chris
