Compiler Flags on Pidora
Project Description
Find a set of compiler flags that reduce the binary size and improve performance for packages built for Pidora.

TBD
Project Details
Find a set of compiler flags that creates smaller and more efficient binaries for Pidora, compared to the current compiler flags.
A set of packages will be selected for testing, to cover a range of dependencies and use cases, such as common utilities, libraries, and GUI tools.
The packages will be built in a Mock environment on an ARMv6 machine.

Goals by Release
Goals for each release and plans for reaching those goals:
0.1
- Create a script that compiles a list of packages from source, using different combinations of compiler flags, and outputs the sizes of the compiled binaries
- Find multiple combinations of compiler flags that create smaller binaries
0.2
- Test the combinations found in 0.1 against a larger set of packages to ensure there is a consistent reduction in binary size
- Test the performance of the smaller binaries and determine which set of compiler flags yields the best performace
0.3
- Submit a patch to the rpm package recommending the new compiler flags
