yes. but, as atmos already said, precompiled binaries are still a few %
slower then optimized versions, due to (really small) overload of runtime
selection of mmx/sse/3dnow code, and not so small difference coming from C
code not optimized at all to the given cpu.

we are searching for package maintainers for major distros, who can make
and (!) maintaining high quality packages (no broken deps etc), to be
included in the homepage downloads section too.
