I think somebody should run some benchmarks with different CFLAGS on
various platforms and come up with the combination that produces the
fastest binaries. ;)

But that's a lot of work:
-O2 vs -O3
beyond -O3:
-funroll-loops
-ftree-vectorize (with GCC4+ and SSE1/2/3)
-floop-optimize2
-ftree-loop-linear
-ftree-loop-im
-ftree-loop-ivcanon
