That’s actually pretty reassuring! I was under the impression it was a huge flex haha. I’m curious how much practicsl speed you gain from compiling everything to your specific architecture. 🤔
It depends. You also have to decide if you want to use LTO or PGO or similar techniques to further boost performance (but massively impacting compile time).
Generally Gentoo ‘feels’ smoother than other distributions. And I had an old netbook that used to be unable to play HD content on Ubuntu and the like, but HD content worked smoothly on Gentoo.
